About this Event

As part of a group, you'll explore Sheffield Museum’s collections and consider how they resonate today. This kind of philosophising is about collaborative thinking, talking and listening to build our understanding. Enjoy exploring ideas with others in a setting steeped in history.

All are welcome, no experience necessary.

"Really interesting to share thoughts and ideas with others like this. The facilitator also did a really good job of running the group and ensuring that everyone got their say. I really had no idea what to expect - but would very happily come to another of these." - previous attendee

Suggested donation £5 – help us send imaginations soaring! A donation from you could supercharge children’s learning, help people unlock their creativity and see visitors embark on journeys of discovery that last a lifetime. Donate today and your donation will be doubled - making twice the difference, at no extra cost to you.
