National Science and Media Museum
A Grand Day Out
Celebrating the reopening of the National Science and Media Museum.
We celebrated the reopening of the museum with a special day of animation-themed events.
A Grand Day Out was a special partnership with the National Science and Media Museum and animation studio Aardman. At this reopening event, Wallace & Gromit fans got hands-on with model-making workshops, enjoyed screenings of Wallace & Gromit and much more.
We also explored the newly renovated spaces at the National Science and Media Museum – including The Kodak Gallery telling the fascinating history of photography – and the immersive Wonderlab exhibit.
