Family Half-Term Drop In Session: Autumn Lantern

Celebrate the colours of autumn at this relaxed, family-friendly lantern-making workshop. Children and adults can work together to create their own decorative lantern using lightweight paper, tissue, leaves and other seasonal craft materials.

Experiment with warm autumn colours, leaf shapes and patterns before assembling a lantern to take home. Whether you prefer a simple design or something more detailed, artists will be on hand throughout the session to demonstrate techniques, offer guidance and help bring your ideas to life.

The workshop runs on a drop-in basis, so families can arrive at any time during the two-hour session and stay for as long as they need.

No previous art or craft experience is required, and the activity can be adapted for different ages and abilities.
