Join us for a sonic exploration as we investigate sounds through art, dance, music and crafting workshops at Discovery Museum. 

Drawing Sound Workshop 

What does sound look like? Can you hear shapes, colours and textures? Join Chalk for a session exploring what sound might look like. You’ll be drawing, sticking and creating by listening to different recordings to produce art work you can take home. Book tickets here.

Sound Scavenger Hunt

Become a sound artist by making a soundtrack inspired by the sounds around the Discovery Museum. You’ll explore the museum collecting sounds as you go, create your own sounds back in the workshop area before developing your very own soundtrack!  Book tickets here.

Note: This session would require a smart phone and require families to download an app to take part. Most suitable for ages 7+ and their families.

Dancing to the Beat 

How does sound make your body move? Can you make your arms into sound waves? Can you make your legs into a metronome? Join Chalk in a high energy workshop where families will be exploring sound and movement. Book tickets here. Book tickets here.
