You Are The Sun
You are the Sun is a very first opera for babies and grownups that explores the magic of nature. Combining the joy of gentle classical singing and sensory play, it is an invitation to see beauty in the smallest things and to let plants be our guides. Celebrate the gift of nature as we conjure a world out of breath, water, sunlight and soil in this magical musical adventure for 0-2s. HurlyBurly Theatre make playful theatrical experiences for babies and adults with classical singing at their heart. We make shows where babies are free to be themselves and grown-ups have a chance to relax, bond and play.

Mini museum explorers
Join us for our popular hands-on and fun pre-school sessions for the under-fives. Explore the museum through stories, music, art and craft activities whilst making new friends and creating memories in an engaging and family friendly environment. These sessions are for pre-school children (from 2.5 to 5 years) and their parents and carers. Held on Friday mornings during term time with a different theme each week. Refreshments are included and booking essential as places are limited.
Art history lecture series Nobles, knights and damozels: spotlighting Northampton Museum and Art Gallery’s pre-raphaelite collection
Interest in Pre-Raphaelite art has enjoyed something of a resurgence over recent years, with the National Portrait Gallery’s 2019 re-consideration of the contribution made by women and now Tate Britain’s exhibition re-evaluating the artistic legacy of three of the Rossettis. Our understanding of Pre-Raphaelite art is undergoing something of a paradigm shift. Using examples of works by eminent Pre-Raphaelites from the museum’s own collection, ProArtium will overlay new scholarship with popular favourites by Burne-Jones, Holman Hunt and others.
ANTARCTIC MONKEYS
FORMED IN MARCH 2006 FROM A JAMMING SESSION, THE ANTARCTIC MONKEYS BECAME A PHENOMENON IN THEIR OWN RIGHT, TRAVELLING THE UK AND EUROPE WITH NUMEROUS TOURS. THE DEMAND IS NOW MORE THAN EVER. FIRMLY ESTABLISHED ON THE TRIBUTE SCENE, THEIR LIVE SHOW HAS THE POWER, PASSION AND THE CREATIVE EDGE TO WHIP AUDIENCES INTO A FRENZY WHEN DELIVERING THE POWERFUL TUNES OF THE ARCTIC MONKEYS AS THE WAY THEY SHOULD BE.

Free family fun at Northampton’s market this Christmas
People across Northampton are invited down to Northampton’s Market at Commercial Street to join in free ice-skating and curling this Christmas. Taking place on 9 and 10 December and 16 to 22 December between 10am and 4pm, people are advised to put on their skates and join in the festive fun. Northampton BID has kindly sponsored this year's curling lane event. West Northamptonshire Council is working with market traders to deliver a free events programme to offer something for everyone. Following the summer of fun throughout the summer holidays, we’re pleased to extend this throughout December. All skates and equipment are provided free of charge. To help support with access to the market’s temporary location at Commercial Street, WNC is working with Bounds to offer free journeys for the bus station to the market. Simply press a button at either location and a free taxi will be called to take you to or from the market. To find out more about the local produce, gifts and services on offer at the Northampton Market, visit Love Northampton Market on Facebook.
