Victorian

Larne Museum & Arts Centre currently offers a variety of Victorian learning experiences.

Handling Sessions.

Come to the museum and let your class (under the watchful eye of trained museum personnel) handle and learn about real Victorian artefacts from Larne, including clothing, household and school room items.

This session can be fitted into a half hour session or can be a longer session to create a more lasting Victorian experience.
