A SUMMER FRUITS themed open day saw hundreds of people stream into the Museum of Royal Worcester.
The event took place on August, 14 and was inspired by the painted designs and food served on Worcester porcelain.
Activities included modelling clay fruit, making paper fruit friends and collaging with porcelain fruit design – guests also watched former Royal Worcester worker, James Skerretts paint 3D fruits onto ceramics.
This year, a new activity was introduced, where visitors tried Georgian-style ice cream and sorbet and learned how it was made before refrigeration by food historian Dr Neil Buttery.
Worcestershire Litfest poets also offered word-play workshops and there was a paint-your-own pottery studio.
Kate Travers, museum director, said: “We look forward to continuing to welcome families, groups, and individuals to the Museum to engage in fun hands-on activities in a relaxing space full of heritage.”
