Discovery Museum's Discovery Nights are back!

Discovery Nights: Unplugged, the third after-hours event (especially for adults) will take place on Friday 18th July, and we’re offering five lucky Living North readers the chance to win a pair of tickets.

Discovery Nights are a highlight of the Steam to Green: A North East Energy Revolution events programme. Steam to Green is Discovery Museum's award-winning two-year programme exploring the story of energy past, present and future in North East England. The theme for Discovery Nights: Unplugged is encouraging a digital detox, inviting visitors to the Newcastle museum to take part in mindful activities throughout the gallery spaces. 

With a bar, relaxing music and a host of non-digital activities on offer, visitors can enjoy book swaps, retro board games and can go behind-the-scenes with Tyne & Wear Archives exploring new acquisitions, or take part in self-led sketching sessions, drawing selected objects from the museum’s extensive costume stores. 

There’ll be quick pub-style quizzes with prizes, hosted by stand-up comedian Si Beckwith, embroidery taster sessions with Richard Bliss, and mindful crafting led by Nature Makers using locally-collected sea glass. Plus, Amateur Ancestor, Justine Boussard, will share a short story of the journey through time and place of a tiny seed.

Tickets to this adult-only event cost £10 per person. Find more information and book tickets at northeastmuseums.org.uk.
