Join author Anne John-Ligali for a fun autumn craft workshop inspired by her book Autumn Adventures.

Celebrate the golden magic of autumn in this warm creative workshop, returning after last year’s successful My Autumn Garden event.

 Inspired by the changing season, children will create a collection of autumnal treasures using leaves, glitter, paints and plenty of imagination. They might make decorative ornaments, heart-shaped leaf creations, cheerful hedgehog pine cones and handmade autumn cards, each one glowing with the rich colours of copper, russet, amber and gold.

 A joyful celebration of the natural world at its most enchanting: nutty woodland scents, scampering squirrels and rabbits, shiny conkers beneath our feet, and copper-covered lawns glowing in the autumn light. With a little creative flair, everyday leaves become magical works of art, capturing the beauty and wonder of the season.

Anne John-Ligalis book, Autumn Adventures, complements the workshop beautifully. Children can buy a copy and continue their seasonal journey through stories, imagination, and discovery.
