The Shipwreck Atlas: Author Event with Jo Arnold

We can't wait to welcome Jo Arnold, author of The Shipwreck Atlas, for an interactive craft event inspired by all-things-shipwreck!

We will be plotting the timeline of a shipwreck and taking part in a battleship gameshow. You will be turning into a shipwreck detective to guess a shipwreck and its history, with witness and survivor testimonies and recorded newspaper articles as clues. We will end with crafting our own ship using paper and Jo will be able to sign your book!

About the book:

Dive deep between the lapping waves to uncover the mystery surrounding more than 50 shipwrecks: from high-seas pirate hijinks to epic naval battles, lost treasure chests to seafaring questions. This stunning gift book explores shipwrecks such as The Mary Rose, the SS Gairsoppa, the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror and SS Sultana’s deadly explosion on the Mississippi River. 

Ideal ages 7+

Children aged 7 and under must be accompanied by an adult at all times in the shop. Accompanying adults DO NOT require a separate ticket.
