Let’s Go Make a Kite!
What a perfect way to spend a leisurely summer afternoon than flying a kite you have built yourself?
The period from 1860 to 1910 is often referred to as the ‘golden age of kiting’ in Europe, with kite flying becoming a widespread hobby. In an era that had a fascination with flight, children and adults alike were able to participate in this activity by building and flying a kite.
Learn the science behind kite building and build your own kite that flies.
This workshop is suitable for children aged 6-9 years. There will be guided step by step instructions and demonstration from members of the museum team.
Due to popular demand we have now added an afternoon session for this workshop.
