Summer Holidays 2024 - Get the Picture

Get the Picture: Summer of Design

The world of cars is full of great designs from the elegant Jaguar E-type to the steadfast Land Rover it’s amazing how a good design can really capture the imagination. 

The Museum is home to over 400 historic British cars and each one has its own fascinating design features from imposing grilles and bodywork to the tiniest details in the wheels and bumpers. This summer we’re diving deep into the world of car design with a range of fun activities that are sure to inspire your creativity! 

Each day from 19 July to 30 August one of the Museum’s resident car designers Dottie and Dougie will be running fun and informative Car Designer Family Tours exploring different features in car design. If you want to get stuck into some designs of your own visit the Car Details Garage to design a fascinating new vehicle of your own!

Finally put what you’ve learned to the test as you take on the “It’s All In The Detail” Family Trail sketching different design features based on the cars you see around the Museum.

Cars on the Move

This summer we’ve been hard at work in the workshop getting a range of cars from our collection ready to roll! If you visit the Museum at set times during the summer holiday period you’ll be able to see cars parading around the site showing off the sights and sounds of classic motoring. More information is coming soon so watch this space to see which vehicles will be running and when.

All these activities are included in the price of admission for a great value day out! Follow this link to book - https://bit.ly/3RFbTMw
