  • Explore the galleries with no distractions
  • Be a big kid and join in with a hands-on clay workshop
  • Enjoy nibbles and wine as you explore
  • Take part in an interactive, nostalgic storytelling session
  • Access exclusive shop offers and discounts
Be a big kid

Take your time reading displays, try out all the interactive activities and take part in some special drop-in crafts set up just for you. As the evening progresses you can embrace your inner child with a fun clay workshop based on Roald Dahl’s love of food and wine (no, you can’t eat your clay creation, but you will get to enjoy a mince pie or two). You can join in with one of our popular storytelling sessions where you’ll get to make all the noise for once!

Delve a bit deeper…

Our Collections Manager, Will, will be on hand to answer any questions you might have while you explore. He’ll help you get the most out of your evening and tell you some of the secrets behind the stories.

Enjoy food and drink

As you enter the Museum, pick up a class of wine (or something non-alcoholic) and enjoy a selection of mince pies and nibbles.

Who is the evening for

This is fun event aimed at adults who want to explore the Museum after-hours without children in tow. Great for couples or groups of friends who want to do something a bit different, whether its just for fun or because they want to learn more about the Roald Dahl’s stories and characters.

Bring your friends, bring your partner – but don’t bring any rotsome children!
