Step back in time and meet the Romans! Join us for an afternoon of hands-on family fun as we explore the fascinating world of Roman portraits. Discover how Romans showed their status, style and personality through art and create your own Roman portrait to take home. Follow a special Roman trail through the museum to uncover hidden stories among our sculptures, design and decorate your own Roman armour, and imagine life in ancient Rome.
This is a Cambridge Festival event.
