Felt making is an ancient process for making textiles that involves a lot of soap bubbles, super-soft wool fibres and a bit of a physical workout! Inspired by Material Power: Palestinian Embroidery, we’ll be making a felt artwork about something precious that we’d like to protect. Felt making is a lot of fun and you won’t even have to thread a needle! For ages 7–11.
This half term, the museum’s been taken over by mythical monsters and scary beasts! Drop in with the family to discover the scary stories and heroic adventures behind the meanest monsters from Ancient Greece. Get ready for the spooky season and become a mythical creature yourself as we make monstrous masks for you to take home and unleash on your friends at Halloween!
Our autumn animal cards are back again! Pick up a free card on your way into the Garden to learn about different garden wildlife and what they get up to at this time of year and decorate it with fallen leaves, seeds and petals as you make your way around the beautiful Botanic Garden.
Several different animal cards are available to collect. Cards will change approximately every 2 weeks.
This autumn, grab your pencils and head to the Botanic Garden to have a go at our new Autumn Art Adventure. We’ve produced a little booklet which is free to pick up from the ticket offices and is full of prompts and ideas to help you observe, imagine, scribble and draw as you make your way around the beautiful Garden at autumn time.
