The session starts at 1pm with a 30 minute performance of the kinetic sculptures - this is free for children but charges apply for adults.  The creative workshop will follow and last until 4pm - no charges apply.  Adults are not required to attend the performance to take part in the workshop but it is highly recommended to maximise on the creative experience.
