Summer at the National Horseracing Museum

The National Horseracing Museum is gearing up to the school summer holidays with a whole host of free creative, drop-in sessions. Running every Wednesday and Friday, from 11am to 3pm, activitiesย include printmaking, stenciling, t-shirt printing, pasta making and much more!ย 

Why not make a day of it? Take in the interactive displays around the museum, have a ride on the racehorse simulator and meet the new museum minis, Kizzy and Harry โ€“ our resident Shetland Ponies.

You can see more Shetland Ponies on Saturday 17th August when we welcome back JPL Racing and Events. Witness the high-speed blur of colour as the Shetland ponies and their young jockeys compete over a mini steeplechase course in the arena. Come and watch the fun and cheer on your favourite.

Then on Saturday 21st September, as part of Newmarketโ€™s annual Henry Cecil Open Weekend, the museum welcomes Jack Brock โ€“ the celebrity, miniature Shetland with his owner Ali Stearn for story time. Inspired by Jack and Aliโ€™s visits to local care homes, listen to their brand-new book with the opportunity to meet Jack himself afterwards.

There is so much to see and do for the whole family across the Museumโ€™s five-acre site this summer.
