    • 23 February, 2012
    • 10:30am
    • The ‘Fun and Games’ FREE “Taster Day” will act as an introduction to The ‘Fun and Games’ workshops that will be running in The Exchange from Monday 5th March onwards. They are as follows: Mondays – Workshop 1. Arts & Crafts: make and do fun, straight out of after-school television. Think Art Attack with a sprinkle of Blue Peter. Tuesdays - Workshop 2. Drama Games for Non-Actors: a series of entertaining and challenging games designed to allow anyone to access their spontaneous, creative side. Wednesdays - Workshop 3.Mixed Bag: A selection of schoolyard, party and board games played in a structured yet fun, and inclusive environment. The day will involve a combination of elements from all three workshops. Participants will be given the opportunity to get a glimpse of each and see what tickles their fancy! Each workshop will take place one day a week over a 4 week period. Alternatively, there is also the option available to be daring and sign up for one entire 3day fun filled week, and experience them all! We feel that adults often deny themselves the opportunity to simply let go and play, and so miss out on the joys and simple pleasures that can be experienced through engagement in play activity. We hope that our workshops will encourage adults to change their mind set to believe that “you are never too grown up to play!"
