Saturday 12 February 2022 | Reflecting on representation - For International Day of Women and Girls in Science we will playfully explore how women and girls of all backgrounds are represented in the sciences, engineering, and the museum. Brilliant women have had a huge impact on innovation in science and engineering. Celebrating the accomplishments of these in this workshop, we will get exploring, making and innovating coding.

Saturday 12 March 2022 | Engineering for British Science Week - While we can see a lot of the results of engineering in the museum and sense the impact science has had on development of transport, we get muddled up, even uncertain, when trying to chat about engineering and science. Join us when we explore the British Science Week’s theme Growth with lots of loose parts and a special engineering kit (Infento). Play and naturally discover the link between science, engineering and creativity.

Saturday 14 May 2022 | Trains Galore for National Train Day – Our friends from Community Rail Partnership who are all about trains, train stations and train-journeys are joining us for this workshop. Enjoy a celebration of this type of transport in our museum of Coventry Transport History.

Saturday 11 June 2022 | Playful alternatives for World Environmental Day – We are playing about with alternatives for paints by having a go at making our own paints from all natural ingredients and learning about the development of paints and their uses in general and for transport.

• All sessions are from 10.30am – 12.30pm

*We don’t like to bribe... but there will be treats in it for you when taking part in any of the workshops.
