Please contact us to register your interest once we have a Learning and Outreach officer in place by emailing us at learning@crossness.org.uk. We would welcome your input.
For Families
We provide free craft activities for all families visiting on our Open Days. The activities are designed for children and their adults to make and create together in a supportive and fun environment.
Each ‘make and take home’ activity explores a different theme related to the Crossness story and participants are introduced to a range of materials and techniques.
