Get ready for a glowing celebration of creativity, imagination and community at our Family Funday at Mansfield Museum on Saturday 7th February, 10am–3pm. This year’s theme is Fire & Light, tying into our wrap-around programme and building excitement for the spectacular Firelight Festival in Titchfield Park later in February.
Families of all ages can enjoy interactive activities, hands-on workshops and magical experiences, including:
Rika Ace, who will be running beautiful reed light and keyring-making sessions alongside live bushcraft demonstrations.
The Joker Entertainment, bringing their incredible Shadow Tent, where children can design and create their own puppet ready for the shadow theatre.
Scott Corden, inviting everyone to help grow our vibrant community canvas with shapes, colours and creativity.
Carrie Austin from Wired Differently, offering inclusive craft fun for all abilities.
Local children’s author Adrian Beeden, sharing stories and meeting families throughout the day.
Face painting, adding a splash of colour and sparkle.
Our lively Disco Tent, perfect for little dancers (and big ones too!).
Best of all — every activity is completely FREE.
Come along, join the fun, and brighten up your February with a day full of creativity, discovery and family joy!
