About

Get creative this February Half Term with Mosaic Monday, inspired by the colourful designs the Romans once used to decorate their homes. Children can design and craft their very own mosaic coaster to take home.

Young explorers are also invited to join in with a fun trail - Romulus, our loyal Roman soldier, has misplaced pieces of his kit throughout the gallery, and he needs help tracking them down. Follow the clues, search the displays, and see if you can reunite him with everything he’s lost.

A great day out for all the family!

This activity is part of our Ways to Play programme of free and low-cost family-friendly activities.

Make your Ways to Play adventure a great value day out by travelling to our venues by Metro and / or Ferry.  Up to three children aged 11 and under can travel for free on the Metro and the Shields Ferry with a fare-paying adult. Metro is the convenient, fast and frequent way to get to your favourite attractions and now it’s even more affordable.
