There are plenty of things to discover out in the fresh air at Wightwick Manor this month. See the work the gardeners are doing, spot the first splash of spring colour, and explore our woods. Don’t forget to warm up with hot chocolate and marshmallows after in the tea-room.
Family Crafts
Wednesday 23 and Thursday 24 February 2022, 11am - 2pm
Find us in the Undercroft for some family craft fun this February half term. Get messy making a clay tile and decorate it with natural prints from the world around you - just like William De Morgan did when creating his famous tiles.
Or why not have a go at helping the local wildlife and make your own pinecone bird feeder to take home and hang in your garden. You can then tick off 'No. 43 Help a wild animal' from your '50 things to do before you're 11 3/4 list.
£1.50 per craft, normal admission costs apply, no booking required.
