Bring Gromit To Life In At-bristol This Summer!

Cracking Activities at At-Bristol this Summer: 25 July – 1 September


In support of the fantastic Bristol Gromit Unleashed campaign, At-Bristol science centre is having a summer of cracking Wallace & Gromit fun!




As well as the ‘Steam Dog’ Gromit and passport stamp in the foyer there’s a whole host of Gromit-tastic activities including:

•   Make your own Gromit model – meet a real-life Aardman model maker who’ll teach you the tricks of the trade and help you make your very own Gromit in an expert-led masterclass.

•   Create your own animated adventure with Animate It! – Once your creations are ready to star on the silver screen, bring them to life in Animate It!, At-Bristol’s unique animation exhibit. Plan the storyboard, direct the action, and add sound effects as you create your own animated adventure – then save it and send it home to watch again with your friends and family

   Meet Wallace & Gromit - Wallace & Gromit will be visiting At-Bristol every day over the holidays, so if you’ve always wanted to meet the famous duo, now’s your chance – just don’t forget the camera!

•   Play ‘Where’s Gromit?’ – Put your detective skills to the test with our giant hide and seek game! Gromit’s picked out his favourite At-Bristol exhibits, so see if you can crack the clues and work out where he’s been hiding.
