Join us for our first-ever terrarium workshop and create your very own miniature garden to take home
Enjoy a cosy afternoon with complimentary hot chocolate and pastries as you learn about these intricate ecosystems. We will guide you step by step — from choosing plants and layering pebbles and moss to discovering the simple science that helps terrariums thrive, including how a layer of charcoal keeps everything fresh and healthy.
It’s then time to roll up your sleeves and build your own! Everything is provided: a glass jar, tools, plants, and a care guide to keep your creation flourishing. By the end of the session, you’ll have a unique living display and the skills for taking care of it.

Access to the museum
We want everyone to enjoy the museum. It is fully wheelchair and buggy accessible, entry is free for essential companions, and we welcome assistance dogs (and our team are more than happy to arrange a bowl of water for hard-working thirsty dogs – please just ask).
The museum offers quiet openings on the last Sunday of each month from 10am–11am when the lights will be up and the sounds down. You can download a copy of our gallery map, which includes some sensory information and other details here.
You can find more accessibility information by visiting our guide hosted on
Visit Britain’s website.
