Programmes can take place in the community or at one of our museum sites and cater to the interests of participants and to the levels of commitment. Above all, Live and Learn programmes are to be enjoyed and aim to promote the health and wellbeing of everyone involved.
The Live and Learn Team work at the Ulster Museum, Ulster Folk and Transport Museum and Ulster American Folk Park.
All programmes are free of charge and transport assistance can be arranged for museum-based workshops and visits.
