Family Fun (5 - 10 yrs): Dream Home with Dioramas

Frederic Leighton designed his artist house as the ultimate 'dream home', filled with imaginative features like fireplaces with no visible chimneys and even an indoor fountain with fish. Inspired by his creativity, this fun and hands-on workshop invites children to design and build a diorama of their own dream home. Will it include an indoor pool or a room made entirely of sweets? The possibilities are endless! Alongside the crafting, adults will build their own confidence in supporting children's creativity, learning simple techniques to encourage imagination, spark conversation and explore together what 'home' means.
