Augustus - free family activity

Step into the world of the Roman's this August. The month itself is named after Caesar Augustus, and to celebrate, families are invited to drop in and create their own imperial mask inspired by the grandeur of ancient Rome.
This relaxed, hands‑on activity is perfect for curious young makers — and their grown‑ups too.

What to expect
Create an imperial mask using a mix of colourful, easy‑to‑use materials
Enjoy self‑led crafting with friendly staff on hand to support perfect for children aged 4+ (grown‑ups welcome to join in too)
Take your mask home as a fun souvenir of your visit
Explore the Roman Baths before or after your craft session to spot the mosaics that inspired your artwork
No experience needed — just imagination.
And the best part? It’s completely free with your Roman Baths admission.
