Valentine's Crafts
We have left some Valentine crafts on our Art Cart. As part of your visit pull up a chair and have a go at making a Valentine Basket or Card for someone special. Baskets were an important piece of equipment for Fishwives to carry the catch when selling it. Have a go at weaving a mini heart basket. Instructions and materials will be provided. This is a stop-off DIY activity as part of your museum visit.
