Free, pre-booked tickets for families/bubbles of up to 6 people. Booking essential. Limited capacity.

Celebrate Insect Week with Leeds Museums and Galleries! Join us for an afternoon of learning all about the secret lives of insects and where they make their homes! Have a go at designing and building your very own Insect Hotel to give our pollinators and minibeasts a helping hand and create a great way to watch wildlife in your own back garden. We'll also be bringing out our wonderful insect collection for everyone to see up close.

All ages welcome

We are putting measures in place to keep our attendees safe. You will be allocated a work station and chairs/seating for your family/bubble of up to 6 people. This will be a cautious distance away from other visitors.

*Please note, your ticket is for entry into the Insect Week event. If you also want to visit the museum galleries, you may have to queue as we have limited capacities

Please follow these safety measures:

• Pre-book a ticket for your family/bubble for the workshop.
• Each ticket is for up to 6 people to sit together. Maximum 6 people
• Remain within your allocated area throughout the workshop.
• Visitors over the age of 11 to wear face coverings throughout their visit to the museum, unless exempt.
• We recommend that those with tickets arrive at least 20 minutes before the event to allow time for entry and track and trace. There may be a queue to enter the museum.
• We kindly ask that you let us know if you cannot make the event, so that we can make the place available to others.
• At the end of the workshop, please wait in your area so that we can stagger exit from the hall at a safe social distance.
• Do not attend if anyone in your group feels unwell or has symptoms of COVID-19.

Please note that after the event, if you wish to look around the museum, there may be a wait if the museum spaces are full. We have reduced our gallery capacities to keep everyone safe.
