14 August 2025, 13:00 - 15:30
Mark the 80th anniversary of peace at the end of the Second World War with a creative, family-friendly drop-in activity at the Museum of Oxford.
Make your own bunting flag to add to our Museum Peace Bunting, inspired by real objects and stories from our collections, from wartime Oxford to the founding of CND. Families can also enjoy a short gallery trail exploring our Oxford at War case, Oxford connections to peace campaigns and other Second World War-related displays.
This is a drop-in activity, no need to book, just turn up between 13.00-15.30 and take part!
Suitable for ages 3-11 but open to all.
This event is free, but your donations help us continue to offer fun and accessible family activities, community projects, and learning experiences for Oxford’s people. Please give what you can – every penny makes a difference.
