About

Join us this October at the Museum of Chelmsford for a crafty and fun, witches, wizards and wonder session!

Make magnificent magic wands, spooktacular spell jars, ghastly origami ghosts, decipher ancient runes and more!

Dress up like a Witch or Wizard and meet the Witchfinder General, Matthew Hopkins if you're (un)lucky.

We'll provide the materials and inspiration from our own collection; you just need to bring your creativity and an adult to help you.

Activities are suitable for ages over 6 years old. All children must be accompanied by an adult, who can attend for free, including entry to the museum.

Sessions are 90 minutes and run Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 10.30am and 2pm.
