Join this family fun workshop inspired by Joan and the Dragon, a crafty adventure for the whole family.

Using cardboard and recycled materials you can build yourself a heroic helmet, a safety shield to protect you and your team, a (safe) sword, so you’re always adventure ready.

Will you be a fearless knight, a daring explorer, or Joan’s trusted guardian?

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