About this event

Join theatre-maker Darren Yorke and visual artist Duffy Mooney Sheppard for a joyful, game-based visual arts workshop as part of Under the Big Oak, an illustrated exhibition by Jole Bortoli created in consultation with children.

In this playful experience, children step into a lively gathering of forest animals for team games under the big oak tree, bringing the space to life through play.

Blending storytelling, theatre games, and visual play, the workshop encourages children to move, imagine, collaborate, and follow the road off the beaten track.

1 - 3 Apr @ 11:30am & 2pm | Approx 75mins

11.30am (5 to 7 yrs and their grown-ups) and 2pm (8 - 12 yrs)

Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
