Take One Project 2022


The Take One Project focuses on one item from the Museum collections, to inspire imaginative cross-curricular work in school classrooms and produce wonderful works of art. This Take One digital exhibition celebrates the imaginative creations of the pupils involved in the project.

The focus of the Take One project is a remarkable Roman figurine of Capricorn made of solid bronze.  It dates to AD 43-200.  Capricorn is a mythical creature, half goat and half fish.  It is also the tenth sign of the Zodiac.
