Movie Making with Miniatures: Family Storytelling Come to Life

Ready to tell your story? In this hands-on workshop, families build miniature sets from cardboard and recyclables, create original characters, and film a short movie together using their own phone. Along the way, adults and children explore the building blocks of storytelling: genre, character, setting, and plot. These are the same literacy foundations that fuel school engagement and academic confidence. Every session has a different theme, so families can return and make something entirely new. Everyone leaves with a finished film and a storytelling template to keep creating at home.
