JOIN IN THE FAMILY TRAIL EXPLORING ROMAN BRITAIN AT STORIEL THIS HALF TERM!
This October half term, discover amazing stories and objects from Roman Britain at STORIEL, Bangor as part of the Totally Chaotic History Museum Trail, organised by Kids in Museums and Walker Books. The national trail for families celebrates the release of Totally Chaotic History: Roman Britain Gets Rowdy, by bestselling historian and podcaster Greg Jenner with expert interruptions by Dr Emma Southon, an expert Roman historian, and illustrations by Rikin Parekh.

Give yourself a Roman name, design your own Roman outfit and learn more about mosaics. Complete the trail and get a free Totally Chaotic History sticker!
Over 50 museums around the UK will be taking part over the October half term and encouraging families to enjoy a visit to their local museum. The activity will run from 19/10/24-02/11/24.
We’re also giving families the chance to take part in our national competition to win a copy of Totally Chaotic History: Roman Britain Gets Rowdy and a Double Art Pass Plus Kids, donated by Art Fund.
