Autumn HQ Explorer Past-Port
The HQ Explorer Past-Port returns for the Autumn half-term holidays from 10 to 25 October. The theme is Photography & Sculpture and ties in with our new exhibition Living Colour to celebrate the 200 year anniversary of the Royal Scottish Academy.
To complete the challenge, families will need to visit us here at DCLG, as well as out friends at The Abbey Church of Dunfermline, Dunfermline Abbey Nave and the Andrew Carnegie Birthplace Museum. You can visit each venue in one day or over several and it’s free to participate. Pick up a past-port at any of the four venues and remember to get it stamped after each activity.
