Be inspired by Summer at York Castle Museum and the beautiful posters from Victorian galas and fairs to create your own amazing poster! We’ll provide all the materials and instructions you need to get creative.

This is a self-led activity, drop in anytime throughout your visit.

Join Phineas Fickletickle with his imaginary enchanted hot air balloon, as he travels round the museum to help his friends get back to their own time period using his collection of magical tinctures. They will visit Medieval, Georgian and Edwardian periods, as well as the 1960s, so there’s plenty to discover and learn.

Visitors can follow these promenade performances which will run for 30 minutes.

Please note this is a standing performance and travels through the yard out to the mill area at the back of the museum.

Times will be advertised at the museum on the day.

Join us for a fun and creative workshop inspired by Summer at the Castle Museum!

All materials will be provided. No experience is necessary but participants will need to have good hand dexterity.
Ages 16+ (under 18 must be accompanied by an adult)
Admission to York Castle Museum is included for the day of the workshop only.
