Celebrating Durham Pride

Get ready for Durham Pride Festival and find out about the Ancient Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut and why she wore a beard then join in with making our pride bunting. 

Explore, learn and create with our programme of FREE family events. Taking inspiration from objects on display across the Oriental Museum's galleries, families can get creative all summer long. Activities are generally suitable for families with children aged 5 - 11 years. All children must be accompanied by an adult. All activities are drop, no need to book, unless otherwise stated.
