Inside Out

  • Free
  • Family and kids

Inside Out is a place to get creative with others and let your imagination soar. There will be all sorts of inspiring materials on hand for you to create artwork or build a play space together. Explore a different idea and activity each time you visit; make a sculpture out of cushions or felt; then turn it into a cubby house. Wrap and weave using ribbon and rope. Listen to music and cast shadows as you play or have a tea party.

Anything is possible!
