A chance to mess about with pigments and paints and create some Cave Paintings.  Gabrielle Delbarre, Archaeologist and Demonstrator at Bournemouth University will take you on a tour of prehistoric cave art left by our ancestors 20,000 years ago!  We will send you a small kit of tools and instructions in the post so you can join in.  Please let us know if you would like a kit. 

This event is part of the Performing the Past project which aims to engage local people in local archaeology, focused around the well-used but little known site of Hengistbury Head.
