Canal Creatures and Story Stones

Dive into the Magic of the Canal! From talking herons to treasure-hiding frogs, what magical tales will your child uncover beneath the lily pads? For ages 5-11.

• Dream up magical canal characters
• Paint your very own story stones
• Discover real canal creatures
• Share and create canal-side tales with new friends

Inspired by local canal heritage and restoration efforts, this workshop connects creativity with conservation and will be delivered by the team from the Green Pledge Project at Gloucestershire Archives. While you're visiting, be sure to check out the Green Pledge Project exhibition on display at Stroud Library from 23 July to 7 August.

All children must be accompanied by an adult.  We recommend children wear old clothes as paint will be used.

Booking is essential as space is limited.  If you cannot attend the event, please cancel your reservation so that someone else may attend.
