Hunt for flint around the gardens; you will be given clues on where to look!

Bring your collection back to the activity table to make into mini sculptures, with the additional help of plasticine… you might just leave with your very own little Reclining Figure or Family Group!

Join us throughout our 2025 visitor season for ‘Family Encounters‘ drop-in making activities inspired by Moore’s work, designed to explore and create together.

Recommended for ages 5+ and their accompanying adults.

Tickets
