Hidden History Hats

Plymouth has links to many famous people throughout history including artists, entrepreneurs, seafarers and explorers.

Come in and find out more about some of these fascinating characters and make a hat inspired by them before the Lord Mayor’s Day parade begins.

Open 10am-1pm (last entry 12.30pm). Admission is free and there is no need to book.

Drop in for as little or as long as you like but please be patient with us if sessions are busy as activities are organised on a first come, first served basis!
