New Discovery Centres
Discover Art, Discover History and Discover Nature are an exciting new concept for the Ulster Museum, offering unique learning experiences. They are the places to get your hands on some of the most unusual and fascinating items from the collections.
The purpose of these areas is to encourage pupils to explore, discover and question the world around us and to develop their skills of thinking, problem-solving and decision-making.
There are two ways to visit the Discovery Centres:
- The first is to book a specific learning session delivered by the Discovery Centre staff. Cost £30.
- The second is self guided. From 12.30pm the Discovery Centres will be open for all other visitors. If teachers would like to visit these areas with their classes after 12.30pm they can add their names to a first-come first-served list available in the Museum each day. Please note that the Centres will be open to the general public at this time. Teachers and supervising adults must accompany their pupils in these Centres. Cost, free of charge.
During holiday periods the Discovery Centres may be booked by education groups in the morning. Once the booked visit has finished the areas will reopen again to the general public.
