About Festive Fun at Museum on the Mound

Families can get hands-on with our collection by dropping by our handling tables. These change every 2 weeks, so please visit more than once to play with the coins Scrooge would have hoarded, explore coins from around the world, and discover some weird and wonderful currencies.

Families can also find the festive squirrels hiding in our Museum!

Every Tuesday-Saturday until 6th January
