About

It’s October Half Term and our Family Activities are back!

Inspired by our new exhibitions by artist duo Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme and I Gusti Ayu Kadek Murniasih: Feels Strangely Good, Ya?, join us to make, explore and play in imaginary dream worlds. Shape your own dreamscape through textures, colours, and stories. Bring your wonder, whimsy, and wild ideas to the mix!

The workshops are drop-in; however, we invite you to book a space for your session as spaces are limited.

Our sessions take place on Tuesdays, Wednesday & Thursdays (Tues 21 Oct – Thurs 30 Oct) at the following times:

Tue, 10am-12pm & 1pm-3pm

Wed 10am-12pm & 1pm-3pm*

Thu 10am-12pm & 1pm-3pm

*Please note we are trial running SEND Sessions on Wednesday Afternoons, 1pm-3pm. These are lower stimulation sessions for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) including neurodivergent individuals – and their families. These sessions are for families who feel this environment would be more suited to them, whether you have a diagnosis or not. If you are interested in these sessions, please find out more and book here.

Book one ticket per person, including adults & children. If you are unable to make it on the day, please cancel your tickets so that others may attend.

If you would like more information, or would like support in completing your booking, please call us on 0115 948 9750. Limited capacity.
