Make a Dartmoor pony felt badge
Tuesday 29th October, 10:30am to 3:30pm - £3.50
A recognised, cherished, and official symbol of Dartmoor National Park since 1951, Dartmoor ponies have roamed freely across the moorland for the last four millennia - and now's your chance to make your own to take home.

Night at the Museum – Hairy Hands and Howling Hounds
Friday 1st November, 6pm to 8pm - £6.00
This Halloween two worlds are about to collide! Dartmoor, a land of myth and legend comes face-to-face with RAMM, a museum alive with wonderous objects and fascinating art. Dare you spend a night at the museum and discover what lurks along the dark galleries and creepy corridors?
There's no need to be scared though as this family-friendly event includes plenty of glow-in-the-dark face paints to scare off any intruders and you'll be making some Dartmoor glow-worms to help guide you around a series of puzzles as you unravel some of Dartmoor's most famous creatures. You can even dress up in your favourite spooky costume and bring your own torch or lantern.
Cafe display - Dartmoor Frame of Mind
Bringing the beautiful great outdoors, indoors, the 'Dartmoor Frame of Mind' exhibition shows a selection of young Devonian people's favourites photographs taken from Dartmoor walks earlier this year. Using only a smartphone to document their findings, the exhibition aims to encourage everyone to get out into nature for inspiration and creativity, whatever your age or background.
The display forms part of RAMM's new contemporary art exhibition 'Dartmoor: A Radical Landscape', which explores Dartmoor's evocative landscape through photography, film and Land Art.
