Meet Me at the Museum

Jack Lowden at the National Museum of Scotland

Actor Jack Lowden takes his friend and fellow actor Andrew Rothney to the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh, where they indulge their passion for Scottish history and explore the stories of key people and events, including Mary, Queen of Scots and the Jacobite uprisings. Together they discuss how meeting at drama school led to a shared love of castles and adventures, how they’ve taken on the roles of historical figures as actors, and their own personal connections to the artefacts they discover.   Hosted on Acast.

Famous faces take their best mate, their mum, their neighbour (whoever they want) for an afternoon at a favourite museum or gallery. As well as getting a peek behind the scenes, seeing what makes a museum tick, it's also the starting point for some great conversations about life, the universe and everything. As well as a chance to eat lots of cake in the cafe. <a href="https://www.artfund.org/whats-on/meet-me-at-the-museum" target="_blank">Meet Me at the Museum is published by Art Fund</a>, the UK’s national charity for art, which raises money for museums and galleries through the <a href="https://www.artfund.org/national-art-pass" target="_blank">National Art Pass</a> – a neat little card that gets you free or reduced-price entry to hundreds of great cultural venues and exhibitions around the country.
