Enjoy the beautiful Senate Courtyard for outdoor play these school holidays at MoAD.
Come and build blocks under the pergola, or settle in for story time in the sunshine. Challenge your family to an egg and spoon race, or a game of badminton. You can play with trucks, practise your skipping, or simply relax with the family. Bring a picnic (without nuts) to make a day of it.
If you need to cool off or in the case of wet weather, PlayUP will be open as usual, with facilitated craft running. For more information on times please visit the website.
They can't wait to see you there. Don't forget your hats and water bottles.
Free. Drop in. No booking required.
