Fancy a music class where your little one can get their hands on actual real instruments?

During the Festival of Play I will have the flute with me for everyone to hear and explore - this is not a look don't touch class!

The class will be structured around familiar and new songs, with plenty of instruments, as well as time for free play.

Coffee & tea is provided too:-)

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned artist, this event is perfect for anyone looking to unwind and get in touch with their artistic side.

We'll be looking at fly agaric for this workshop - also known as amanita muscaria or toadstools - and learning how to use watercolour paints to depict beautiful and accurate paintings of mushrooms.
