Explore Leeds Museums and Galleries though exciting objects and fascinating facts, with Leeds Discovery Centre’s Learning Officer, Emily Nelson. Join Emily as she takes viewers through the collections with a new theme each week. Museums from Home is a series of short videos which highlight a range of historical artefacts in the Leeds collection. Themes include the Romans, Chocolate and Industry in Leeds. Videos are hosted on Youtube and social media every weekday.
There’s also a brand new area of the
website, jam-packed with
fun activities and learning resources for kids. Download craft and activity sheets and get involved with Lotherton’s weekly drawing challenge. Craft a crown, sew your own woolly sheep and take inspiration from the beautiful artworks and drawings of Leeds Art Gallery. There’s extra links and activities for home learners including
MyLearning resources and the Leeds Curriculum too. You can also step into our online exhibitions from Leeds City Museums Fast x Slow Fashion, Temple Newsam’s Below the Salt and Lotherton’s Making Japan.
