Summer dragon workshops at Coventry Charterhouse

Unleash your imagination in our magical Summer Dragon Workshops – nature-inspired fun for creative kids and curious grown-ups!

  • Booking essential

Join us at Coventry Charterhouse for a magical, hands-on workshop all about dragons! These one-hour sessions begin with discovering fascinating facts about mythical dragons, then move into a series of creative nature-based activities.

Children and their grown-ups will make their own clay dragons, create nature dragon eggs, build nests for them to hatch in - and maybe even paint with dragon blood (don’t worry, it’s all part of the fun!).

This is a bookable workshop with set start times, not a drop-in session.

Nature Makers Coventry are an award-winning provider of outdoor nature arts, crafts, and exploration activities. Their sessions are co-created by adults and children, and are all about nature, in nature, and using nature. Designed to be open-ended and creative, the workshops are perfect for children aged 1–11 and offer a wonderful way to explore and connect with the outdoors as a family.

Come and create something magical together!
