Come and help us build a giant den in the Winter Garden!
Art in the Park will be transforming the Winter Garden during
Sheffield Children's Festival by building a huge den for you to explore!
This will be a den unlike any you have built before - part maze, part
sculpture, the den will have tunnels and secret chambers containing all
sorts of surprises for the eyes and the senses!
And- we need your help to build it so come along! There's no need to
book and no need for previous experience.
When the den is finished it will stay in the Garden until the end of the
Children's Festival and will be FREE to explore and play in!
