Have you been in to see this yet? If previous events around Luke Jerram's work are any indication (who remembers Museum of the Moon and Gaia?), this is going to be a MASSIVELY popular exhibition!

If you're a local business, why not get in on the action by running events or food & drink specials to coincide with it? You still have plenty of time, as the Sun is sticking around all summer long until 6 September!
