Description

Exhibition area at Science Alive!

This was the first time the Mosaic was displayed to the public end-to-end. Taking up over 42 metres of wall space this was the first exhibition to be held in the newly constructed gallery at the Science Alive venue. To complement the display a number of Michael's puzzles were constructed for the public to play with, as well as computer displays of the CD-Rom of the mosaic and some of the puzzles. A teachers resource kit was made available and other programs relating to the medieval era were run in conjunction with the display.
