About Woolly Weekend

Celebrate all things woolly with a weekend of family fun at the National Museum of Rural Life. 

With themed activities and crafts throughout the museum and farm, there’s plenty for all ages to enjoy!

See woolly farm friends up-close, take part in wool-themed crafts in the museum and explore the galleries with our Dolly the Sheep Trail.

Then head out to the farm to watch YouTube sensation Cammy Day at work with our Scottish Blackface flock. Learn how, when and why sheep are sheared and see demonstrations of some traditional and modern shearing techniques.
