We are going to be busy over the next couple of weekends giving the sculptures in Symonds Green a refresh! Weather dependent, we'll be there from 11am-4pm. We'll be out with a concrete specialist before that to make sure we've done all the preparation we need to before we start painting. Touch base with Junction 7 to find out where we are meeting.

Plus, BEEE Creative are at the Museum, so if you are looking for something fun and free to do once a month, come along. The dates are 5 September, 3 October, 14 November, 5 December and 9 January, 10am-12noon. All ages welcome.
Dancer Maga Judd will lead creative movement and play. You can join in seated or standing. Visual Artist Anji Archer will lead the art activities and provide the materials. It's free to come along thanks to Lottery Players. To find out more contact Carrie Washington @ BEEE Creative. Email: carrie@beee-creative-cio-uk or telephone/text/WhatsApp 07971 171 061.

You could even combine the two this weekend! Outside the Exhibit is all about what we love about Stevenage's open spaces so they are the perfect fit!

Stevenage Museum has a range of fantastic interactive activities for all ages this autumn celebrating the 80th anniversary of Stevenage becoming a new town.

The museum is looking to create real life stories for the future by giving you the chance share your happy memories about growing up here. It’s especially keen to hear from people who grew up in the town from the 1980s onwards and any photos or other records you may have. A photographer will be visiting the museum to capture images for its collection to bring to life what Stevenage is like for families in 2026 or in years gone by.

Family photos old school: Saturday 12 September, 2.00 – 4.00pm

A great chance to learn how to use an old film camera with your children to capture a day in the life of your Stevenage family and become part of the town's history. If you have an old camera, please bring it along. The museum will also have some available to borrow with film.
