It should be an amazing day and is completely free! We have the following lined up (I have highlighted the most child friendly in blue but the craft workshops are all aimed at families so should be great for kids too!)
- The Thackeray Medical Museum are bringing their museum in an ambulance from Leeds. This is a great opportunity to explore their collection. Children can bring a teddy to their teddy bears hospital and can make a badge.
- The County Records Office are bringing a Pop Up Archive. These are brilliant and a great chance to explore old maps, pictures and documents from Whitby.
- There are dance workshops and dance performances with Mesh ballet. Including a Diddy Dance workshop for pre-schoolers and a workshop offering a mix of ballet, contemporary and tap dancing for all ages
- There will be professional face painting.
- There will be print making with Suzie Devey (the artist who brought her phone box printing press to the library, as well as to venues such as Staithes Art Festival).
- The Ammonite quilters will be here and are inviting members of the public to take part in making a Whitby quilt which will be displayed in the library.
- There will be craft and knitting workshops as well as workshops in Find my Past and Ancestry
