Family-friendly events
The Big Draw - October half-term 21 - 29 Oct
We're joining The Big Draw Festival this October half-term to try and create the longest ever drawing of a minuet. Come to the Ball Room and draw your own character to add to the minuet drawing, or use one of our colouring in sheets. At the end of the week we'll measure to see how big the drawing is. In the late 1700's William Dickinson created 'A Long Minuet as Danced at Bath' which measured 5ft - can we beat it?
Music for Miniatures - 25 Oct
Music for Miniatures is returning to the Tea Room this half-term with a string group. This will be another great opportunity to enjoy music at the Assembly Rooms. Designed for school aged children (ages 4 to 11), the string band will play a number of tunes and at the end there should be time for the kids to have a go. Tickets need to be booked for this event.
