Who
Become a spy and help 'crack' codes!
A secret way of writing messages is called a cipher and in this workshop you will be introduced to a simple cipher called a Caesar cipher (named after the Roman general, Julius Caesar, who used it to send secret military messages!).
You will construct a cipher wheel out of card and use this to 'break' secret messages to reveal the location of the hidden treasure.
This event is part of Summer at the Museums 2026.
