February Freebie - Spotlight on...

This afternoon, in our countdown to February Freebie 2016, we take a look at

Weston Park Museum

Museums Sheffield: Weston Park is an award-winning, family-friendly museum where the visitors come first. If visiting with children, simply wind up and release, but there is plenty of treasure here for adults too. Discover the real story of Sheffield, from its geological roots to the people, politics and music that shaped our modern city.

Alongside old favourites such as Snowy the Polar Bear and Spike the Woolly Rhino, Weston Park plays host to a series of temporary exhibitions.

In the museum now is a fantastic touring exhibition - Secret Egypt will challenge some of the enduring myths about ancient Egypt - Did aliens build the pyramids?





Find them at February Freebie…
