Night's Sky, Autumn and Bonfire Night - Relaxed (SEND) Family Craft

Hull and East Riding Museum of Archaeology is running a relaxed family craft session on Tuesday 27 October, from 10.30am to 12.00. It's called Night's Sky, Autumn and Bonfire Night, and it's designed for children and young people with disabilities, neurodivergence or anxiety who might find the museum's busier drop-in sessions a bit much. Numbers are kept limited, so it's a quieter space to get stuck in without the crowd.

The session works around two things: the night sky and the change of season. Participants make craft inspired by the stars and the dark, and alongside that, 3D artworks inspired by autumn and bonfire night. It's a morning of making, with the themes of the season running through it.

The craft is part of the wider programme at the museum, which offers free access to 36 High Street. If you've got time to linger, you can explore 237 million years of history under one roof — mammoth skeletons, Roman mosaics, Iron Age villages and interactive family activities. It's a good spot to wander around before or after the session.

If the morning doesn't suit, there's a busier, free drop-in version of the same session running later that day, from 1pm to 3pm. The relaxed one runs from 10.30am to 12.00 at Hull and East Riding Museum of Archaeology, 36 High Street, HU1 1NQ.
