Step into a world of imagination and build an entire universe from the simplest of materials — cardboard!
In this hands‑on family workshop, you’ll design and construct your own landscapes, creatures, buildings, and fantastical inventions using recycled cardboard, tape, and colourful materials.
This workshop encourages playful experimentation, problem‑solving, and collaboration. No experience is needed — just curiosity, imagination, and a willingness to get stuck in.
Take home your creations or leave them to become part of a growing collaborative installation shared by all our visiting “world‑makers”.
This workshop is designed for parents or carers to stay and enjoy the creativity. Tickets only need to be booked for children attending; this ticket includes one free adult space.
