Festive shadow puppets and stories
Listen to a cosy wintertime tale and then create your own shadow puppet story characters in this interactive workshop for families.
There will be a chance for everyone to re-tell the story together using their puppets. You can expect a cast of woodland animals and magical beings!
Children 12 and under must always be supervised by an adult while in the Library.
Led by artist Tessa Asquith-Lamb and storyteller Anne Hunter.
