About Thursdays in the Hidden Forest

Meet underneath the trees in the magical Hidden Forest and get creative, connecting nature with drawing, sculpture building and sensory activities. Follow your child’s curiosity to make and play together, while relaxing to the sounds of birds and trees in our outdoor space where imaginations can soar and family memories are made.

Open to everyone, pop in between 11.00–15.00 where you will be met with a warm welcome.

This event is led and held by an artist educator and features guided activities linked to nature and the sculptures in the park. Sessions take place on the first Thursday of the month, March to October.
