About this Event
Do you like dinosaurs and art? Come and be a young paleontologist!
A paleontologist is someone who uses fossils to learn about the Earth long ago.
Join artist David on a trip back in time to the 1800s. This was when people first found dinosaur bones and didn’t know what the creatures looked like.
Using just a few bones, you will make your own artwork of an amazing creature, just like the Crystal Palace Dinosaurs.
A fun arts workshop with paper, card, glue and colouring pens & pencils.
