About

Join us for 75 mins of great games and fun exercises to get you making stories, writing & sharing. Led by local artists Alison Sweatman and Simon Belshaw.

This session is themed around The Faraway Tree, and so (of course) we'll be creating crazy characters, imagining new lands, and playing around with language to make our own stories and poems come to life

A fun and hands-on session that's open to all, especially if you don't normally like to write. Also - in this session, you'll have the chance to be part of an audio installation we're creating in the Library (if you like)

For ages 6 - 11, places are free, please book 1 ticket for each child attending. Grown-ups should ideally stay for the session and join in.

Supported using public funding by Arts Council England
