Make your own hero at Chapel
Gallery
Superman, Wonderwoman, Batman or She-ra. Whoever your hero
is, why not create your own during the next family-friendly
workshop at Chapel Gallery.
The next event is themed ‘Miniature Heroes’ and is on
Saturday 23 May from 1pm to 3pm. It is a chance for parents and
their children to create their own perfect princess or action man
with artist Shelly Atton.
At only £2 per person it’s a great and cheap way to spend
the afternoon together and have fun at the same time.
Dave Tilleray, Executive Manager for Community Services,
said:
"No matter what our age we all have a hero that we can
relate to. This is a great opportunity to get creative and make
your own unique miniature one and spend quality time together as a
family too."
This latest activity is part of the family-friendly
programme, which includes monthly events on everything from
storytelling to sculpting!
This also complements the free weekly room the gallery
provides every Saturday that is dedicated to creative pastimes for
both parents and youngsters to enjoy. Whilst there, visitors can
meet the gallery’s friendly team or join in the specially organised
activities to accompany the current exhibition on show.
The family friendly activities enhance the school holiday
workshops for youngsters, exhibitions, events and other excellent
facilities. To find out more contact 01695 571328, visit the

The public can visit the Gallery, off St Helens Road, anytime
from 10am to 4.30pm, Tuesday to Saturday. The café is open from
