About
Celebrate Halloween, Tudor style!
Did you know the name 'Hallowe'en', a contraction of 'All Hallows' Eve', was first used in the mid-16th century?
This October half term the Mary Rose Museum is taking inspiration from 16th century All Hallows' celebrations and inviting younger visitors to get hands-on to create Tudor Halloween-inspired crafts.
Candle creations:
Create a beeswax candle to take home (or you could pop it in a pumpkin!)
All Souls' Day feast fondant-making:
Design a Tudor-inspired marchpane-style feast sweet to decorate your All Souls Day feast.
These activities are free with a valid Mary Rose Museum ticket, though a contribution of £2 per child is recommended - all contributions go toward the continued conservation and preservation of the Mary Rose and her objects.
