Family Hub | The Dazzle Design Studio at Imperial War Museum North

Discover the art and illusion of dazzle camouflage with our Dazzle Design Studio.

Inspired by the work of artist Norman Wilkinson, play a game of nautical ‘hide and seek’ to explore how
experimental camouflage with bold designs and shapes made it possible to hide an object as big as a
battleship.

Create your own designs to find out how optical illusions and tricks of the eye can be used to confuse and disorientate. Then test your creations through a telescope on the high seas without leaving the comfort of dry land.

Location: Imperial War Museum North – Libeskind Rooms

Saturday & Sunday – 10am – 4pm

Suitable for children 5+ years. For families attending with additional younger children, step-free accessibility information can be found here.
