Take a break from scrolling

Bring along your favourite book, magazine or comic, find a spot on the roof and enjoy a relaxing hour reading together in silence. Afterwards, there’ll be plenty of time to chat and meet other readers.

Bring your own book, a blanket or cushion, and sun screen. On the rooftop, you can also pop into the Museum Restaurant for a drink and something to eat.

The event is free to attend. Please do book a free ticket in advance via The Offline Club. You can also make a voluntary donation there to support the initiative.
