About
Are you ready to get back out and meeting people?
Socialising and connecting with others is important. Going to a museum and meeting new people can make you feel happier and healthier. It can also improve your mental health and wellbeing.
Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Communities team are inviting you to a free drop-in Museum Social every first Tuesday of the month across our museums and art galleries.
We’ll have free tea, coffee and refreshments on the go and you’ll be able to chat to museum staff. We’ll also have informal tours of new and permanent displays and collections highlights for you to learn about.
These events are free and for everyone.
