WHAT’S ON: FAMILIES & FUSION

We have a really exciting mix of crafts, dance, music, film, performance, classes and lots more to keep families entertained this autumn!

Join us every weekend for Family Fun Sundays: create your own paper-cut klezmer band and musical instrument magnets at our Klezmer in the Park tent, or enjoy a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party and interactive screening of Alice in Wonderland, with songs, prizes and tea drinking. Kafka Kids, part of the our Kafka Festival, features a Kafka inspired puppetry workshop and a creepy crawly Crafternoon. We’ll also be screening Happy Feet, with a special family tap session.

FUSION is our programme designed for young people. Kids can create choreography from their favourite pop songs at Street Dance, explore the science of food at our explosive Food Experiment series, or learn illustration and drawing techniques with professional cartoonist Marf. There’s also the FUSION Half Term Scheme, featuring exciting activities and sessions.

Expecting and new parents can enjoy Baby Yoga, Antenatal Classes and Zest’s Baby Café. Other events for parents include Growing Motivation in your children and The Parent Gym - a free six-week parenting programme.

And, of course, the JW3 Ice Rink returns for a third spectacular year...

We look forward to seeing you!
