And that's a wrap on #BeingHuman2024! A huge thank you to everyone who has made 230+ free events happen over the last 10 days.

We've loved seeing all the fantastic work bringing diverse humanities research to life in creative ways, right across the UK. More highlights soon!

A fantastic day at Cardiff West Community High School for 'Making History in Cardiff', a day full of family-friendly activities, including a 'Science of the Lambs' quiz, object handling, brick painting, clay Mesopotamian cylinder seals, and much more! #BeingHuman2024

📜 Making History in Cardiff @cardiffuni @elycaerau_ACE
🎭 Shakespeare Family Day @LibraryofBham @ShakesInstitute

And much more:

Coming up tomorrow - Is making it really faking it? 🏺

A workshop led by @DerbyUni at @derbymuseums considers the history of replica artefacts and gives you the chance to create your own ceramic. Will you make a fake or an authentic original?
