Events for children

The Library is a great place to visit with children.

Why not let the kids lead you along the red carpet to discover our exhibitions? Or how about spending time in our Play Area and escape to a new world? Of course, no visit would be complete without a visits to our café for a drink and a piece of cake before going home.
