Held in the Hand box

A resource offered by Leicestershire museums, available for schools to hire.

The ‘Held in the Hand’ box looks like a lot of fun, and the museum service have had very positive responses from schools using it – please visit the link below..

The objects include some unusual items such as a tooth fairy calculator, an alien seed pod, a suit of armour for a small bird and a beach comb. Other sculptures are untitled leaving their interpretation open to whoever handles them.

Michelle at the museum service sent me this…

There is a small charge for borrowing the artworks, see: http://www.leics.gov.uk/artworks.htm for full details of costs and insurance.

But the small charge is definitely worth it!
