A puppet workshop, string art, cooking for kids and more - there's something for everyone these school holidays.
We have put together an "egg-cellent" array of activities to keep you and your family entertained across the Easter break.
Spring into fun these school holidays with our Trinket Jar sessions on April 12 at Felltimber Community Centre where children can learn the art of using air dry clay to create a jar to fill with treats or special bits and bobs.
Kylie from Art Starts Here will teach the young artists how to sculpt their own beautiful keepsakes.
At Hyphen - Wodonga Library Gallery, those aged between 10 and 14 can learn to create moveable puppets of endangered animals during the Holidays @ Hyphen - Puppet Workshop with Abi Thompson.
Participants will learn drawing and art techniques before filming their own puppet show against a projected backdrop featuring Abi's work.
