Visit Guildhall Art Gallery and London's Roman Amphitheatre to enjoy specially designed family activities.
A revolving programme of family activities may have you heading into the Roman Amphitheatre and hearing tales of Roman conquests, or creating crafts from the Victorian paintings surrounding you.
At their next Second Saturday on 12 July, they will be coping with the summer heat by creating Victorian-style hand fans.
11am to 4pm Craft Activity: Draw or paint your own hand fan inspired by the Victorian fashions and themes in our artworks.
11am and 2pm Story time: Story sessions celebrating art, artists and creativity.
There will also be a story area with cushions, costumes, and soft play building bricks.
The activities are free; however, booking is encouraged as it helps us ensure they have enough resources for everybody. Walk-ins are welcome on the day.
The Guildhall Art Gallery is free to enter. The current exhibition is Evelyn De Morgan, and you can pick up a free family guide at the front desk. The exhibition is Pay What You Can. You can pay as much or as little as you like for your ticket or visit for free.
There is plenty to explore in the Art Gallery so plan to make a day of it. You can bring your lunch to have outside in Guildhall Yard or in our large cloakroom area.
This event is for children aged 3 to 13 and their families. It is not suitable for individual adults.
