TankusThe Henge to play at Kew Bridge Steam Museum.
We are excited to see the return of the band for a special evening gig as part of our Museum at Night event on Thursday 16th May.
The gig will be free but as we are a charity we are suggesting a donation of £10 for adults as this will help us cover the event costs.
Other activities on the night include interactive craft demonstrations and a pay bar.
We will also have the Easton & Amos engine in steam.
James Watt and Charles Dickens will also be entertaining the guests with interesting tales of the museums Victorian past.
