Ice Age Herefordshire is coming to Hereford’s Museum and Art Gallery this spring.

Of display will be the bones of extinct animals and artwork, not to mention the chance to meet Fluffy the Mammoth.

A spokesman said: “Can you imagine woolly mammoths roaming Herefordshire’s icy tundra? Or a landscape on the edge of a massive ice sheet? How long did the Ice Age last and did people live here? Ice Age Herefordshire at Hereford’s Museum and Art Gallery answers all of these questions at a special exhibition which runs from April 4 to June 20.

“Come and learn fascinating Ice Age facts, discover stories about King Arthur’s Cave and meet Fluffy the Woolly Mammoth. There is plenty for the family to explore including a child-friendly science lab, cave painting, an ice age shelter, dressing up as an Ice Age mammal and helping to create a baby woolly mammoth!”

The spokesman added: “See the bones of extinct animals, as well as bird and animal specimens that survived the Ice Age, and some of the oldest human artefacts found in the West Midlands. The exhibition outlines changes in local landscapes and environments with a particular focus on the creation of kettle holes, or ‘Ice Age Ponds’. A National Lottery funded project with Herefordshire Wildlife Trust brings the investigations of these intriguing landscape features to life. Artwork created by students at Hereford College of Arts takes things up to date with their exploration of the meaning and effect of modern day Climate Change.”

Ice Age Herefordshire is curated by Herefordshire Museum Service in collaboration various bodies including Museums Worcestershire, Hereford College of Art, and Herefordshire Wildlife Trust.
