Festive Fun at Ancient House Museum This November

A person dressed in a traditional British police uniform, including a dark tunic and a tall helmet with a badge, stands in a narrow hallway lit by warm overhead lights, looking slightly to the side with a serious expression.

What’s on this November/December at Thetford Library

A close-up photo of a colourful tabletop game setup. Illustrated cards, sheets, and stickers are scattered across a light surface, featuring pastel designs of fantasy-style shops, potions, and quest icons. One card reads “Protection from Problem Beasts,” while another shows a section labelled “Quests.” A small sticker of pastries and a croissant decorates a blue gingham-patterned envelope in the corner. The overall aesthetic is whimsical and hand-drawn, with a focus on creative, fantasy-inspired artwork.

As the year draws to a close, Thetford Library is excited to host two very different but equally inspiring events — one delving into local history, and another opening up worlds of imagination through creative gaming. Join local archaeologist Keith Robinson on Wednesday 12th November for an afternoon talk on the Iceni, the ancient tribe […]
