10.30 - 4
try your hand at making ancient reef animals |
two days of activities with artists from Stone and Water
felt crochet, model-making can all play their part |
These days are partly training for our
existing volunteers, training for possible new volunteers and also just days
for adults who'd like to have a go themselves. We have worried about the
wording of these - we want to offer days for adults and teenagers rather than
families - we do a lot of activities for family groups but sometimes it is good
for grow-ups to have some creative time that is just for themselves...
These days also mark the overlap between
the end of our "Exploring with Stories" project and the start
of the next phase of "Ancient Landscapes"
just drawing is good, too |
Inspired by fossils from
local limestone and the rich landscapes of the Upper Dove Valley, we'll share
skills, ideas and techniques giving ourselves time to experiment and reflect
No experience needed -
just join in and have a go!
Workshops are free and
materials are provided but spaces are limited so please book a place (either
day or both)
