Intergenerational Toy Making Workshop
Saturday 4 May 2024 at 1:00PM
Melton Library & Learning Hub
Event Description
Discover the joy of toy making with this intergenerational Heritage Festival workshop facilitated by Emma Grace.
Emma has been working within the sustainability space for over 20 years, running workshops inspiring and empowering individuals to create beautiful pieces in a sustainable way.
Take a journey back in time as you employ the same skills used to create homemade toys during War-era Australia. As resources were sent to the frontline and luxuries hard to come by, parents became inventive to keep their kids entertained and provide the reprieve of joy.
Create something beautiful with your family or friends to take home!
