*** Astronomical ***

The big lanterns we made with the 3 schools last year last year were on display last weekend at the "Arty Party" as part of Derby Museum and Art Gallery's celebration of the opening of the Joseph Wright gallery which now displays a bigger collection of his paintings and sketches. It is well worth a visit !
