Create Spooky Characters!
Join our fun and interactive clay character workshop, where you can shape, mould and bring to life your very own scary or cute clay creatures.
Who is it for? ✨
This workshop is designed to welcome primary school-aged children and their parents or guardians to create together. It's catered for all skill levels, promising a fun morning or afternoon of creativity. Each session lasts up to an hour, making it an ideal way to entertain the children during the October half-term. And the best part? Once the session is over, why not turn it into a family outing? Treat yourself to a delicious meal at our restaurant or enjoy some retail therapy at The Emporium.
What's Included?
Each child will get everything they need to create spooky clay characters, including one pack of modelling clay per ticket holder, which is more than enough to create multiple designs.
One responsible adult can oversee up to 2 child attendees (please provide duplicate parent/guardian information on both bookings). Each session lasts up to an hour, the perfect time to craft, create, and enjoy.
For children who require extra time or space, please notify us when booking so we can do our best to accommodate them. We recommend booking the last session of the day, when it will be quieter. Please note that this event takes place in the upstairs shop. For any further questions or information, please email enquiries@houseofmarbles.com. You can also visit our Accessibility page for more details.
