What's on

Join our expert Explainers for an action-packed show that tells the story of how science met industry right here in Manchester, building our world and shaping our lives today.

Our expert Explainers are on hand to unravel some science secrets at Curiosity Stops throughout the museum.

Especially for Baby Builders and Mini Engineers, our Construction Packs contain everything you need to ‘work’ around the museum.

Calling all Mini Movers! Join us as we roll, clank, whirr and clack our way round the Textiles Gallery.
