On Saturday 10 March 2018, The Brambell Building on Deiniol Road (opposite Asda) will be open to the public for the free event, where you can enjoy the wonders of the natural history museum, take a tour of the aquarium and research facilities. The live flash bang chemistry show will be back as well as the chance to see real fossils and then make your own! Don’t miss your chance to hold some live reptiles and peer into the worlds of fish and others!
