Family Activity Day
If you are in the Manchester area on Saturday 30th April, why not pop along to our brilliant Family Activity Day? We’re open from 11am until 3pm and you can drop in any time and stay as long as you like.
Come and get involved with heraldic calligraphy, craft bookbinding, and amazing colouring from the pages of our inspirational collection.
In addition to all this, there’ll be the chance to wander round the Library and medieval buildings, sit at the desk used by Karl Marx, see the devil’s hoofprint conjured up by John Dee, or imagine yourself as a priest walking along the stone cloisters.
Don’t miss out – book a place here and bring your family and friends along to see one of Manchester’s hidden gems!
