Come with us on a journey to Mars, where we explore different features and environments on the planet.
But don’t forget your sketchbooks! Sketchbooks have been a constant in explorers' kits for hundreds of years. In this unique family-friendly workshop you will be accompanied by astronomers and artists who will be part of your expedition team.
This event forms part of our Season of Drawing programme, which explores the importance of drawing through talks, tours and creative workshops.

Meet the team
Artist Jenny Staff will give you tips and tricks on how to look and capture your experience, while astronomer Affelia Wibisono will be navigating you around the Red Planet's seemingly bottomless canyons and icy dunes.
Important information
This unique experience is suitable for children aged 5 and upwards.
Our team will be providing pencils and paper on the day. Please do not bring additional equipment as we are restricted to what can be used in the Planetarium.

From 12-2pm, the artist will be setting up a studio space in the Re-Think Space at the National Maritime Museum to help you expand your drawings and share them with the public.
