Magical Willow Family Workshops

Join us for a spellbinding family workshop where you and your little ones can craft a magical willow wand and bring a fantastical creature to life – whether it’s a unicorn, a dragon, or something straight from your imagination!

Will you be inspired by The Museum of Marvellous Things and our enchanting summer play space, The Imaginarium? Let your creativity run wild as you design and weave your own one-of-a-kind magical being! There will be fun options tailored to different ages, and no need to decide in advance – you can choose what to make on the day.

This is a family workshop designed for children and their grown-ups to enjoy together. Each child will need their own ticket, which includes space for one accompanying adult to support them in their magical making adventure.

About the workshop leader:
Amanda Webb fell in love with willow after attending a Christmas willow weaving workshop as a student. It has been her material of choice ever since.

The willow she uses is grown on the Somerset Levels within a mile of her house, making it a local and sustainable material. However, being a full-time teacher, weaving was just a hobby as Amanda never had the time to fully commit to her art. That all changed in 2022, when after 33 years of teaching she retired and started Amanda Webb Makes, creating and selling her sculptures along with sharing her passion through teaching.
