About
A fun filled family crafty party to celebrate the Shipley Art Gallery’s 100th Birthday
Jam-packed with activities, families can get hands on in creative crafts and artist demonstrations.
Bubbleologist Jesse Ward will be in the Shipley garden to entertain you with her fantastical, magical soap bubble shows. Use your craft skills to create your own bubble wands and strings and learn new ways of making bubbles.
Ever wanted a go on a potter's wheel? Have a go at throwing your own pot with tutors from Bensham Grove Pottery.
Work with the Shipley Weavers to learn how to spin your own piece of yarn, and then try out your weaving skills.
Plus lots more crafty party fun and games, including bunting making and cake decorating.
Please note: This activity aims to be fully inclusive and anyone with additional needs is welcome. If you would like to have an informal conversation with a member of the learning team before attending then please contact the Shipley learning team on learning@shipleyartgallery.org.uk.
