If you’re wondering how to keep your little ones entertained this half term look no further.

We’ve found the best free activities in the region to ensure you make the most of the school holidays without breaking the bank.

The Harley Gallery invite you to get creative with the free materials and tools provided and make a bunting flag to add to their community art installation. This activity is inspired by the new exhibition, 'Well Travelled', by textile artist Anne Kelly. As you add to the bunting display, The Harley Gallery invite you to celebrate your own special places, which could be real or imaginary. Perhaps somewhere you've been – or somewhere you'd like to go. Monday to Sunday 10am to 4pm.
