Each session, children will create something special to take home, with crafts including handmade vases, clay dishes, garden twig mobiles and much more! 🌱🎨
A lovely opportunity for children to get creative, learn new skills, and enjoy making something unique.
 
Parents/carers are required to be with their child during the session.
 
📅 Dates: Every Monday starting 6th July – 3rd August
⏰ Time: 1pm – 2:30pm

Every first Monday of the month the Drylaw Pickers meet up at the Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre with loads of gear and pick up everything in site in our chosen area.

It’s really fun so come and join us for the craik and the good feels afterwards and then reward yourself with a free lunch back at the Centre.
 
All ages welcome. Well behaved dogs on leads.
