About this event

  • Event lasts 5 hours 15 minutes

Are you studying history or a related subject and in years 10-13 at school? Are you considering a career in heritage? Would you like to study a heritage subject at university? Then you may like to join us for our one day work experience session.


The day is based around a number of practical sessions in conservation, digitising documents and the role of an archivist. You will get a chance to catalogue documents, work with original material , make packaging materials and have a go at cleaning one of our documents.

Due to the hands-on nature of the event spaces are limited.
