Education Space & Workshops
At the fair you can come along to the Education Space to try your hand at one of our origami or screen-printing workshops and on Sunday there will be a prize winning Treasure Hunt for kids to take park in….with a little help from the grown-ups no doubt!
Workshops are suitable for all ages so take your pick and join in with friends and family. The Education Space is always open, and even when nothing is in session, feel free to get creative and explore your artistic side with lots of lovely Faber-Castell art materials.
All activities operate on a first come first served basis and are fun, informative and best of all FREE!
Workshops from the April 2013 edition of the Fair
