Family Days: Manchester Blitz And The Christmas Truce

Throughout the weekend the whole family can get involved through craft activities and object handling. Join in with family storytelling at 10.30am and 1.30pm. Then drop into the open studios to get creative and make something inspired by IWM’s collections. Create your own artwork inspired by Second World War images and posters, to mark the anniversary of the Manchester Blitz; learn about the Christmas Truce on the Western Front in 1914 and decorate your own fabric ball; or decorate your own gift box inspired by the Princess Mary gift tins sent to soldiers during the First World War.
