About
Calling all young scientists and fashion designers!
Would you wear a shirt made out of feathers or a hat made out of clay?
Join the Wakefield Museums & Castles team in the test lab to experiment on materials in all sorts of weird and wonderful ways.
Use what you learn to design a super suit.
The workshop will take place in the ‘Learning Zone’ which is located within the main Wakefield Library space on the Upper Ground Floor of the Wakefield One building.
*3pm is a relaxed SEND session. SEND groups are always welcome at all sessions.
Wakefield Museums & Castles are also running these SEND sessions for visitors who benefit from a more relaxed atmosphere, with reduced numbers of attendees.
