The Universe is vast and mysterious, containing all of space, matter, energy and time (including you!)

Explore the universe with this exciting breakdancing workshop for children aged 7-11: push against the Earth with your own hands and feet to explore the identity of home and our neighbour planets, and understand why they all are so different!

This workshop gives a brief overview of our Solar System and what makes it special via the medium of breakdancing, led by local break dancer and space scientist Mona as part of IF Oxfords Science and Ideas Festival.

The Museum is accessible for wheelchair users and baby carriers. There is step-free, level entry access to the Town Hall is via the entrance closest to Carfax (to the left of the main steps as you face the Town Hall). Inside the Museum, Museum Makers is accessible via a platform lift and lift to the basement level. Accessible toilets are available in the Museum (close to Museum Makers) and in the Town Hall on the ground floor, before entering the Museum. Please contact the Museum team if you'd like to talk to a member of staff about your access requirements. Further access information can be found on our website: https://museumofoxford.org/plan-your-vis...
