Use our activity packs to help you with your celebrations. Pick from traditional Roman recipes, Saturnalia Songs, and inspiration on themes. Have a go at making your own decorations and share them with us by using #HW1900

You can also take part in one of our live Saturnalia crafts zoom workshops which are free to attend.

The live workshops are different to the video tutorials below and offer a flexible way to get involved and create – they are also perfect if you don’t have access to a printer. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions and interact with the artist while creating!
