Local children are being offered the chance to enjoy a range of festive activities at the Roman Baths, Fashion Museum and Victoria Art Gallery in Bath, this Christmas. 

Activities include making fashionable Christmas decorations, having fun with festive crafts and making a Roman oil lamp for New Year. 

Cllr Patrick Anketell-Jones (Conservative, Lansdown), Cabinet Member for Economic Development, said: “There are so many activities for children at our museums over the Christmas holidays, whether they are interested in art, fashion or history.

“Local families can enjoy these for free with a Discovery Card and as advance booking is not required you can just turn up on your chosen day.”
