Step into the world of Wessex folklore with this hands-on creative session inspired by the Un/Common People exhibition.
Little artists will get creative making highway-woman’s masks, lollipop-stick fairies, paper flowers, and even spiral giant maggots—each inspired by traditional folk stories and songs. We’ll explore tales such as The Maid and the Maggot, The Singing Barrow, Female Robber, and I Sowed the Seeds of Love.
Discover more through the Wessex Museums Folk Story and Song Map.
Suitable for children aged 2-5. Adult supervision required.
Includes a baby play area.
