Audio Descriptive Event: Roman Scotland

Join us for an audio-described tour of our current exhibition, 'Roman Scotland: Life on the Edge of Empire'. The tour will be followed by refreshments, object handling and crafts in our Learning Centre.

Find out more about the military communities of Rome’s most northern frontier in this audio-described event. Encounter objects and stories that bring these vibrant and diverse communities to life . Learn how locals in this occupied land found ways to deal with the invading groups. 

The tour will last around one hour. Afterwards you are welcome to join us in the Learning Centre to handle real and replica Roman objects. You will be able to create your own mosaic to take home and enjoy some light refreshments.

This event is designed for people who are blind or partially sighted.
