Experimental Saturdays are monthly events at the Prince Philip Maritime Collections Centre designed to spark creativity, conversation and confidence.
From hands-on art workshops and curator-led talks to wellbeing sessions and introductory coding and digital skills workshops for adults, each session offers a fresh way to experience the collections and try something new.
Whether you want to slow down, learn a new skill, hear fascinating stories, or get creative with friends, there's something for you. Join us for inspiring, relaxed sessions that open up the stores in engaging and unexpected ways.

Sip and Paint
Saturday 7 November 2026 | 5–8pm | Tickets from £15
Join us for a creative and reflective Sip and Paint exploring the theme “Our Journey.”
Inspired by maps and the places they take us, you’ll create your own personal journey through paint. Bring together meaningful places, memories, milestones, turning points and moments from your life to create a unique artwork that tells your story.
No artistic experience needed just bring your imagination! We’ll provide the paints, materials and a selection of drinks to help get the creative juices flowing. Whether your journey takes you across continents, through different chapters of life, or simply celebrates the people and moments that matter most, this is a chance to get creative, have a drink and enjoy some time to reflect.
Bring a friend and save! Buy two tickets together as a bundle and receive 10% off your booking. Bundle selectable at check out.
Come ready to sip, paint and discover the story your journey has to tell!
