Crafty Weekends

Crafty Weekends are running at Chester Library this Saturday 31 October, and they've been a fixture there since 20 June 2026. They're free, drop-in craft sessions for children of all ages, held in The Den, the children's library within Storyhouse.

The format is as easy as it gets: there's no booking required, so you can just turn up on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. A different theme is set each week, and all the materials are provided on the day, which means you don't have to worry about packing a bag of supplies before you head out. It's a drop-in, so you can stay for as long or as little as you like, and it's open to children of all ages, from the very little ones to the older kids.

Because it's in The Den, the children's library at Chester Library, you're right in the heart of Storyhouse. If you've been before, you'll know the spot. It's a dedicated space for younger readers, so it's a natural fit for a session like this.

Crafty Weekends run every Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 4pm, and they're free to attend. If you're looking for something to do with the kids this weekend, you can just pop into The Den at Storyhouse between noon and 4pm.
