☀️ Summer family fun: Mythical Mask Making (plus sensory play for under 4s)
In this exciting hands-on session Anna from Well Wagon will be showing you some simple mask making techniques through the play of messy modroc, a plaster based art material. Take inspiration from Welsh myths and folklore to create a unique mask to wear and take home.
Little ones can join in the messy fun too! Although the mask making is for ages 6+, on this date we'll also be joined by Flying Start South Parenting Team who will be offering sensory play for children under 4, where parents and carers can engage in fun, hands-on activities and shared experiences with their little ones.
This event is part of our Enchanted Earth summer programme and there's lots more to enjoy! See our full community programme here.
