Secret Silver Screen Society

The Secret Silver Screen Society needs your help…

You’re the hero now.
Tell no one.
We will see you soon.

As part of the Secret Silver Screen Society you will be invited to go on a journey and explore the Library, Art Gallery, Carriageworks Theatre, and Leeds City Museum to help you on your quest. Along the way you will meet official members of the Secret Silver Screen Society, watch a film, follow some trails across the venues, and discover ideas to help you along the way!

Your will start your journey in the Millennium Room in the Carriageworks, here you will meet the first of your characters and receive your secret mission.

Your mission will be self guided across our various venues, and can be completed in your own time. Please complete you quest by 4pm on Tuesday and Wednesday, and 5pm on Thursday.

As part of this experience, you will get to watch a film and we would recommend you allow for at least an hour to complete your quest across the venues.
