9 Sept 2017 – 10 Sept 2017
Exhibition 'Heritage Open Days: Bailiffgate Museum and Gallery' in Bailiffgate Museum and Gallery
Bailiffgate Museum and Gallery depicts ten thousand years of the history of Alnwick and the surrounding area through artefacts, colourful panels and interactive displays and games. Visitors can walk through a print shop, an Edwardian classroom and a miner's kitchen, put on a hard hat and crawl through a mine or try on Border Reiver armour. As well as waiving the admission charges on Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th September, we will have object handling activities, where visitors can find out more about individual items in our Collection, and drop-in activities based on our current exhibition "Dig IT!" which explores the archaeology of Northumberland. Please check our website nearer the time for more details.
