About this Event

Join us for creative half-term crafts inspired by the thousands of amazing books in the RCP library!

Book a ticket for 28, 29 or 30 October and drop-in anytime and for as long as you want between 10.30am and 12.30pm.

Recommended for children aged 5 – 11 but all are welcome. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Adults can attend free and do not need to book separately, but they must be included as part of a child’s booking/group.

Books are more than just words. They can be filled with beautiful printed pictures, the covers stamped with designs, have moving diagrams, or be used to create mini animations. In this session you can have a go at printing your own patterns, creating moving diagrams, making bookmarks, colouring fabulous pictures and more!

Plus discover our new exhibition ‘A body of knowledge’, all about the books in our doctors’ library, with our children’s activity trail.

Prices: Pay what you feel, recommended £5 per child.

Juice and biscuits will be available.
