Picture This at the National Videogame Museum
Focus on photography with The National Videogame Museum this October half term as they present ‘Picture This’ a new exhibition capturing the fun of videogame photography.
Running 21 - 29 October, visitors can enjoy endless camera based fun, including generating their own content by taking pixel perfect selfies with a Game Boy Camera or crafting props for a photo booth close up.
Ideal for all ages and perfect for non-gamers alike, visitors can also capture Pikachu and friends in their natural habitats in Pokemon Snap, build a photo album while exploring beautiful environments in Alba: A Wildlife Adventure or visit Scandinavian inspired towns and cities in Toem: A Photo Adventure, a stunning indie game that utilises a black and white hand drawn artstyle.
The museum is open every day from the 21 - 29 of October, 10am-1pm and 2pm-5pm. Book tickets here.
