Kite Making Workshops

This workshop is at The Nicholsons Shopping Centre
Please note this is a Drop-In Workshop:
You can make a kite in around 20 – 30 minutes with a bit of adult support! So you can turn up at any time during the session. But do make sure you leave enough time to get here, get park and get into the session!
Workshops are suitable for all the family and tickets are £6 per person.
Pre booking for Kite Workshops is highly recommended.
If you have tickets for a workshop you are guaranteed to make a kite at the session. During each session we may have a small number of tickets available on the door but to avoid disappointment please pre book.
These workshops have been kindly subsidised by funding from The Prince Philip Trust Fund; Hays Travel Foundation, Cyril Taylor Trust and Spoore Merry Rixman Foundation.

It is a baby friendly class, created especially so you can bring the baby you care for. Grown ups are in a semi circle (with room for your buggy next to you) and babies can sit, crawl or play on the blanket in front of you.
These uplifting classes are led by conductor/composer (and mum) Marta Radwan. There's no auditions, no singing experience is needed and you don't need to have a 'good voice' - just an openness to have a go! You'll be sure to know the songs and there will even be some which include your little one.
