The Courtyard’s Herefordshire Family Festival returns during October half-term with a sea-themed Family Fun Day for all ages.
This year’s theme, Spirit of the Sea, was chosen by last year’s attendees.
Children and adults are encouraged to dress as sea creatures and characters.
The event will include performances, workshops and activities for families. Free and low-cost drop-in activities include biscuit decorating, dressing up, a photobooth and face painting.
Families can also book low-cost ticketed events, including Little Play World, Drama Tots – Underwater Adventure, a silent disco, a family ceilidh with Starlight, a family drawing workshop and a music-making workshop.
In The Courtyard’s Main House, The Storm Whale will be performed as a new storybook concert. It is based on the book series by Benji Davies and tells the story of a child, a whale washed up on the beach, and friendships that will change their lives and echo down the generations.
Other children’s shows and films will run throughout half-term. These include The Witch Who Couldn’t Sleep, Clare and Cory Share a (Glorious) Story and the family film A Sharks Tale.
The Three Billy Goats Gruff will be staged as The Courtyard’s Family Saturday. A free pre-activity will accompany the performance from 10.30am.
Herefordshire’s Family Festival will be held at The Courtyard on Wednesday, October 28, from 10am.
Tickets and further information are available from The Courtyard’s Box Office on 01432 340555 or at www.courtyard.org.uk/.
