Get ready to build, drape, clip and create in this joyful family den-building adventure!

Using everyday materials like fabric, pegs, blankets and unexpected bits and pieces, you’ll work together to design and construct your very own den of dreams. Will it be a cosy reading nook, a secret hideout, or a wonderfully wobbly creation full of surprises? It’s entirely up to you!

This workshop is designed for parents or carers to stay and watch the creativity unfold. Tickets only need to be booked for children attending.
