Another gorgeous Playful Pots creation (now on its way home to sit pride of place on the dining room table with hand picked flowers 💐🌹)

PLAYFUL POTS is showing NOW at all our Museums, and all the way through April. SooooOooOOOooO much fun!! x
To all our dear makers - are you ready to potter, play, and create?

Now Showing: Playful Pots 
Tues 7 April - Monday 1 June

Introducing Playful Pots - a joyful, hands-on activation where little makers can turn simple materials into something blooming beautiful. Children are invited to colour, decorate, and bring to life their very own paper pot, before it’s carefully shaped and secured into a sweet wrap-around pot for a cup or container.

Will it be covered in rainbows? Polka dots? A garden of wild, wiggly flowers? However they imagine it, every creation is uniquely theirs. 

With plenty of room for creativity, experimentation, and a touch of crafty magic, Playful Pots is all about celebrating self-expression and the simple joy of making.

Running from Tuesday 7 April through to Monday 1 June, plenty of time to pop in, play, and make something special to take home.
Yep! We’re open all day, every day - through the whole Easter weekend and the entire school holidays 🐰
