Heritage Open Day: Time-capsule workshop

Sat 12th Sep 2026 - 10:15 - 14:30

Celebrate your everyday history by preserving the present for your future self.

What would you like people in the future to know about life today? Join us this Heritage Open Days for a special time capsule event, where visitors of all ages are invited to help capture a snapshot of our lives, stories, and experiences in the present day.

Take part in creative activities, share memories, write messages to the future, or contribute ideas that reflect everyday life now. Together, we’ll decide what should be preserved and sealed away as a time capsule for future generations to discover. This

drop‑in, hands‑on event is a chance to reflect on our shared heritage — and what we choose to pass on.
