Leeds Discovery Centre



On Friday I went to Leeds Discovery Centre. I didn't know what this involved, but my friend sorted it out and booked us in for a tour. After a good roam around town trying to find it, we finally 'discovered' it next to The royal Armouries.

You can find out more about it here.
It is basically a temperature controlled storage space for items not in Leeds's museums and galleries. There is a lot of weird stuff there. I wanted the plastic giant squid that was hanging from the ceiling!

I wish I had known about it before hand. Especially for the collections project last year. You can book time to spend drawing objects in the centre as well!
