Caithness Horizons Museums at Night Event
13th May 2013
“Inaugural Meeting of the Great Guild of Museologists”
Museums at Night is Culture24's UK-wide festival of inspiring after hours cultural events in Museums and Galleries. It runs from Thursday 16th May until Saturday 18th May 2013.
On Friday 17th May from 7 – 8.30pm as part of the Museums at Night celebrations Caithness Horizons is hosting the Inaugural Meeting of the Caithness Horizons Great Guild of Museologists. Museology is the study of Museums.
Professor Katness H. O’Rizons and a panel of equally world renowned experts will be debating some of the Museum’s more weird and wonderful artefacts. Come along and listen to the evidence, examine the artefacts yourselves and vote for which expert is right. Suitable for children aged 7 – 12 years and families.
This very special production is being performed by the Youth Section of the Thurso Players. It is being directed by Audrey O’Brien and has been written by Philip Arthur.
This is a FREE event but pre-booking is essential as places are limited. To book your place please contact Caithness Horizons on 01847 896508 or e-mail info[AT]caithnesshorizons.co.uk
