We're delighted to let you all know about new Wandsworth Museum activities for families this Spring.
All are free and being led by some fantastic artists at Battersea Arts Centre and in local libraries.
Sheepscapes in our Libraries
Wandsworth was once a rural place where sheep grazed on common land. What is it like to be a sheep? This Easter, sound artist Dan Scott invites families to explore sights, sounds and sheep from Wandsworth's past.
Join him to create sound recordings of your very own.

Special Family Day on Saturday 9th April 10.30am - 5pm
This Family Day will see us gathering together all this inspiring activity and celebrating Wandsworth's rural past with an artist-led Family Day.
Families are invited to meet and pet sheep "stars" from Vauxhall City Farm between 3 - 5pm!
Families can join in with a day of activity as well. Join our human knitting machine, create your own flock of sheep, go your own way in our rural pathways installation, make woolly badges and listen to the BAC Beatboxers perform their very own version of counting sheep!
