Join us for fun, free summer drop-in sessions on the theme of rain and weather, inspired by our new exhibition, 'Rain'.

As well as books and stories on a weather theme, there will be related crafts and creative activities suitable for 6 to 10 year olds. Siblings and other family members are also welcome to join in and get crafting!

The crafternoon sessions will take place in the exhibition gallery every Wednesday in July.
