About this Event

Bring your imagination to life at Cabbage Hall CIC with a hands-on air-dry clay crafting session! Set in the peaceful, muddy surroundings of the popular St Helens' community allotment, this activity lets you sit outdoors, chat with neighbours, and build a beautiful game from scratch.You will roll out raw clay to form your game board, score the grids, and sculpt unique custom counters. Instead of boring standard pieces, you can get creative by shaping your counters into cute garden themes like strawberries, bumblebees, or leaves. Once your shapes are formed, you will use bright paints to add the final, vibrant details to your personal masterpiece.
