We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help deliver 'Stay and Play' sessions for Under 5s. If you enjoy interacting with families and young children we'd love to hear from you. Weekly sessions will be at Central and Bletchley Libraries Wed mornings. https://t.co/4rMasanfrx

Educating Zerena exhibition & events programme @MK_Gallery ends today. It's been a fantastic opportunity to reveal the 1988 story of when spaceship crash landed & an alien stayed with the children of a #miltonkeynes estate. Next stop? Welcome to Planet Fishermead!...

We really enjoyed our forum Archiving Milton Keynes this morning, hosted by @MKMuseum . A good range of speakers sharing different perspectives about what the archive is and could be. @CultureMK Well done everyone!

[Milton Keynes Museum @MKMuseum]

Happy Halloween, folks.
We're not sure what it is, but some 'kin has been spooking us at the Museum today.
We've got chills...and they're multiplying!
