This summer we have a jam-packed schedule of fun craft sessions for children.

Craft sessions for children who like to get hands-on and messy!
Let your kids get messy and leave the clearing up to us!

Thursday 23rd July - Create a tiny treasure box. £2.50 per child. Book here

Tuesday 28th July - Make some beautiful bunting. £2.50 per child. Book here

Thursday 30th July - Create a mosaic using air-dry clay*, seeds and pulses. £5 per child. Book here

All these craft sessions run from 10am - 12pm and have 4 arrival time slots (10, 10.30, 11, 11,30am). We space out the arrival times to allow each child enough time and space to enjoy the session.

*Clay sessions can get messy so please come dressed in old clothing or bring an apron.

Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

These sessions are aimed at children aged 4-11. All ages welcome but younger children may need more assistance from their accompanying adults.

Booking in advance is recommended. Book online or at the museum. We can not guarantee there will be space for walk-ins on the day.
