Art: We invite you and your children to make and bring along an art object, based around the theme ‘Summer Garden’, to join our ‘butterflies’ on display. A slug? A sunflower? Anything! You can make it out of recycled objects if you like. There will be opportunities throughout the day to create something at the Park as well.
