Arty Artefacts - Home Educators Monthly Sessions
2026-06-10 10:30 - 13:00 | Weston Museum, Burlington Street, Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, BS23 1PR, United Kingdom
Welcome to the Early Summer Season of Arty Artefacts – Home Educators Monthly Sessions!
Each month, we will take part in a variety of different hands on and creative activities inspired by historical art and design or linking to items from the collections. Monthly sessions will be organised in pairs and the Early Summer season will focus on nature inspired art, with leaves and flowers galore!
Children will explore a variety of examples of 2D and 3D art inspired by or incorporating natural elements, with lots of natural examples to study and touch. We will use these as inspiration for some creative responses, such as nature weaving or leaf printing. In our second session, we will focus in on aspects that were of most interest to the children in the first session, so the main elements will be as child led as possible.
Dates and Times
Early Summer season dates and times are as follows:
Wednesday 13th May (10:30-11:30 Juniors, 12-1 Seniors)
Wednesday 10th June (10:30-11:30 Juniors, 12-1 Seniors)
Ages and Abilities
Sessions are designed to be active and accessible for a mix of ages and abilities with 2 separate sessions for younger or older children. The morning session will be aimed at slightly younger children aged approximately 5-8 or approximately key stage 1, nicknamed our Juniors, and the afternoon session will be aimed at the slightly older children aged approximately 9+ or approximately key stage 2, nicknamed our Seniors. If you would like to attend as a family group with mixed ages, then just pick whichever session you feel would be most suitable for the group as a whole.
If you would like to let us know about any specific considerations for your children then we would welcome this, just get in touch.
Accompanying Adults
Tickets need to be purchased for each child attending, but grown ups do not need to purchase a separate ticket. It usually works best for the children who need that extra bit of support (such as those who are younger, less confident or need extra help with engaging), if grown ups stay and join in with activities. Whereas for older, more confident and more self-directed children it is usually fine for grown ups to not stay in the session if they prefer, although they will need to stay within the museum building whilst the session is taking place.
Price and How to Book
Tickets cost £13 per child for the 2 month paired block and can be booked via Ticketsource or by popping into or phoning the museum directly.
Attendees will be encouraged to continue their learning at home between sessions by utilising links and resources emailed out.
Rusty Club (YAC) Membership – Please note that we do some of the same crafts or activities in Rusty Club sessions as we do in Home Educator sessions, so if you decide to join in with both programmes there may be some sessions with duplicated topics, so we tend to advise choosing one programme or the other.
