We've just levelled up with brand new art activities inspired by the Sacred Caves exhibition! Dress up in Tang dynasty-inspired outfits, see the story of the Nine-Coloured Deer come to life through a zoetrope activity that animates your drawings, and soak in the colours and sounds of Dunhuang in our light room, which draws inspiration from the iconic three hares motif.

Read our Social Story before visiting the museum. 

Socks are required for everyone (including babies and adults) to enter the space. The gallery is closed daily from 12.30pm–2pm for cleaning.
