Detail
From Tuesday 16 April you may get more than they bargained for. Aliens will be taking over the toy galleries, as part of the GeTINvolved Alien Beach Party exhibition. Members of the GeTINvolved group got to know the Museum’s collection and books by the author and illustrator Nick Sharratt (whose exhibition Pirates, Pants and Wellyphants is here from 20 July to 3 November). They worked with the sculptor Vicky Holbrough to create Nick Sharratt style characters including: a duck with a monkey’s tail, a monkey in red shoes, a lion/croc/monkey and a light up space ship full of green aliens.
