Norfolk In Time

In Memory of Frances Martin Lindsay

Good For
All Ages

Location:
Third Floor

Interdisciplinary
Highly Interactive

Norfolk In Time is a highly interactive exhibition weaving stories of history, culture, science, technology and industry to showcase Norfolk’s unique resiliency in the face of continual challenge and change.

Visitors will ascend high overtop Norfolk in a hot air balloon simulation, design a more resilient city with innovative architecture, and crash waves into various types of city protection systems.  An interactive chandelier canopies overtop the entire gallery illustrating how one individual can create a ripple of change in their own community.
