May half term crafts
The theme for this school holiday is music and fashion. The Assembly Rooms once famed for Georgian fashion and music that played during the 'season' will be bringing this out in crafts. Decorate a fan, make a Georgian paper doll, try musical snap and even learn fan language. There's sure to be something to entertain every age group.
Running from Saturday 25 May until Sunday 2 June, 10am to 3pm. Activities will be available in the Card Room for free, so simply drop in via the entrance on Alfred Street (opposite Boston Tea Party) to have a go.
