The Family Gallery

The museum features interactive displays and 'Golden Prospects' in the Family Gallery. 'Golden Prospects' invites our younger visitors (particularly children aged 3-8 years old and their grown ups) to enjoy paintings and objects depicting journeys and exploration across the Big Wide World. Specially chosen items from museum collections are joined by cloaks, clouds, maps, compasses and even a boat with a shimmering golden sail, to ignite the imagination of all children
