Sunday Crafternoon

Sunday Crafternoon is back at St Albans Museum + Gallery this Sunday 1 November, and it's one of those things that runs every single week, so if you can't make this one, there's plenty more to choose from. It's a children's craft club that's been going every Sunday since 6 September, and it keeps running right through to 20 December, so it's a good one to keep in the back of your mind for any Sunday when you're stuck for something to do with the kids.

The sessions are aimed at children aged 5 to 11, and the activities change every week. They're linked to the museum's collections and whatever exhibitions are on at the time, so the craft changes as the galleries do. Because it's a club, you can come back week after week and get something different each time rather than just a one-off. If you're not sure what the specific activity is for a particular Sunday, you can phone the museum on the morning of and they'll tell you what's on the table that day.

There are a few practical things to have in mind before you head in. Children have to be accompanied by an adult at all times, and numbers are capped at 12 participants per session, so it's a small group rather than a big, crowded room. Because of that cap, you'll need to book in advance to make sure you've got a spot. Each session runs from 1:30 to 3:45, with last admission at 3:15, so you've got a good couple of hours to settle in and get stuck into whatever the theme is. It costs £6.50 per participating child.
