Ideas Worth Exploring – at home and online with People’s History Museum

Creative Tourist
Ideas Worth Exploring with People's History Museum
People's History Museum

6 November — 31 December 2020 Entrance is free — Visit now

Even though we’re in the midst of a second lockdown, there are still plenty of ideas worth exploring at home and online with the People’s History Museum. Although the doors are now closed until Thursday 3 December 2020, our friends at the museum have a packed digital programme of events, activities and resources for everyone to get stuck into.

Take a 3D tour of the galleries and explore the development of democracy in Britain. Families – young and old – can find out more about the radicals of the past and be inspired to become the radicals of our future.

We applaud PHM for continuing to bring people together for conversation and creativity through their online programme of events, Ideas Worth Exploring.

If you’re looking for more ways to stay connected with culture during the lockdown, do check out our full guide packed with online things to do in Manchester and the North.
