In today's session we shared an update on the 'Documenting Northern Lincolnshire's History' project.

For the craft, the Makers designed their own Roman mosaics.

#MuseumMakers
It was a quiet session today, so it gave us an opportunity to look at accessibility. We are hoping to introduce the RNIB PenFriend audio labeller, which allows you to record your own audio labels.

We walked round the Jurassic Sea Gallery and talked about how it might work.
