In January we’re welcoming in the New Year by crafting a piece of art inspired by a beautiful embroidery in the Gallery showing Khorshid Khanoom ‘the Lady Sun’, a common motif in Iranian folk art. Our youngest artists will be creating their very own embroidered artwork to bring sunshine into their homes.

Mini Morris sessions are now DROP IN ONLY. FREE. Donations welcome.

Choose from:

• 10:00am to 11:00am.
• 11:45am to 12:45pm.

As this can be a messy session, please wear or bring old clothes. Aprons are available.

All sessions include the craft activity, singing and a snack to take away.

Drop in with limited capacity. Please arrive on time and sign up at the front desk.

A minimum of one adult per 2 children. Mini Morris sessions are ideal for children aged 2- 4 but anyone under 5 years old is welcome. We regret we cannot accept any children over 5 at these sessions.
