9 December 2025 (historic event)
The North East Cultural Sector has a strong offer for home-educated families.
The Great North Museum: Hancock has brought together a collection of these organisations, both large and small, in one room to share what they have to offer with home educators.
Visit the stalls to find out about the opportunities, workshops and resources that families can use to engage with these venues and organisations from around the region.
Our organisations range from the Tees to the Northumberland. We will have Museums, Theatres, Outdoors venues, Music services, a Science Centre, a Zoo, and many other organisations in between, so hopefully something that will interest all.
Children are welcome.
This event is ticketed with entry times so that we can ease through the numbers of people attending this event
Once you have finished browsing our stalls, please explore the rest of the museum until our closing time at 5pm.
Do note that this event doesn’t include any activities for families to make and take part in. This is a chance to find out about what we all do and can do for you.
