"People’s History Museum, Left Bank, Spinningfields, Manchester, M3 3ER - Visit now. Recent winner of the national “Kids In Museums” award, visit this national museum of democracy for interactive family galleries and regularly changing creative events. It’s never to early to learn about past struggles and ‘there have always been ideas worth fighting for’."

"Take them to The People’s History Museum to find out how democracy began. This free Manchester museum is designed to teach, inspire and promote ideas worth fighting for; ideas such as equality, social justice, co-operation, and a fair world for all. Who doesn’t want the next generation to feel deeply about these important matters."

"This is another opening that will be the talk of the town when it reopens, as the Manchester Jewish Museum unveils its £6m transformation to the public for the first time. You'll have to be patient though - the Chetham Hill venue won't open until July 2, when it kicks things off with a MIF co-commissioned installation. General admission tickets will be available soon at manchesterjewishmuseum.com."

"Reopening from 2 July, daily, 10.00–16.00 (until 22.00 on Thursdays). Manchester Jewish Museum is thrilled to be reopening its doors following a major capital development redesign and extension. Two years in the making, the brand new museum now features a gallery, café, shop and learning studio and kitchen, as well as the stunning restoration of its 1874 Spanish and Portuguese synagogue."

"Daily tours guide you through the lives of Jewish Mancunians in 1912. Guest exhibitions focus not only on the Jewish community but also the wealth of ethnic diversity in industrial Manchester. The only Jewish Museum outside of London, it allows you to explore the life, culture and contributions of the Jewish community to the city."

"Dress up as a Victorian, visit several rooms, have lunch in the café, or take part in a guided tour. A really fun way to learn about Victorian and Mancunian history. Highly recommended for children, book, music and history lovers."
