Make a trick-or-treat tote bag in this creative family workshop for children aged 5-12.

Join artist Kelly Bryden for a spooky October half-term workshop. Print creepy creatures onto canvas tote bags, from ghouls and ghosts to witches and cauldrons, to take trick-or-treating on Halloween!

There are two sessions running from 11am-1pm and 2-4pm. The workshop is suitable for 5–12 year-olds. Dress for mess!

What’s included with my ticket?

Led by a professional artist with all materials provided, all you have to do is bring yourselves! We advise dressing for a mess as this workshop will involve the use of paint. Tickets also include free entry to the Museum so you can explore at your leisure.
