Maidstone Museum – Summer Make It! Crafts: Fremlin’s Elephant
31st Jul 2025 - 29th Aug 2025
Maidstone Museum
We have a new exhibition called ‘Titanic’ so one craft each week links to this theme. We also have a new gallery – ‘Local History’ opening in July 2025, so one craft each week is linked to this theme. The third craft each week is Greek themed.
Ticket sales end at 3pm the day before the session. Remaining tickets will be available on the day at reception.
There will also be themed trails around the museum with a collectable badge as a prize. (£2 per child includes a pen – pay at the reception desk)
