Arts, Crafts and Skills of our Ancestors

 

The Community Archaeology programme from Queens University will be offering drop-in workshops featuring the arts, crafts and skills of our ancestors.

Learn how to knap a flint, make and decorate a clay pinch pot, make some rope from natural fibres or learn to weave willow at these experimental archaeology demonstration sessions, then go and see the real thing from thousands of years ago in the museum.

This is a free drop-in event and booking is not necessary.
