Immerse yourself in Nottingham’s heritage with a demonstration by skilled Bobbin Lacemakers

Watch how they use traditional techniques and generations of knowledge to keep this ancient craft alive.

Members of the Nottinghamshire Bobbin Lace Society  will be back with us. They’ll be showing the intricate art of bobbin lace making. They love talking to visitors too and answering questions, so don’t be shy.

Our 5 large galleries will also be open as normal. There’s lots more to see and do, including our model railway, children’s activity trails and colouring competitions. Plus our volunteers will be in every gallery to bring the artefacts to life.
