‘Our World in Common’

Get on your marks to come and join “Our World in Common” to celebrate the 2012 London Olympics. Get set with your passport to artistic adventure and then you’re off around the globe to create traditional crafts and art from each continent. On your journey you can listen to the beat of the African drums, shout with Punch and Judy or be enchanted with fairytales. You can sculpt an Indonesian shadow puppet or make a Hopi Indian kachina warrior, hide behind a Venetian mask or twirl a hand painted Chinese banner. Go down under for Aborigine dream painting or stay closer to home with golden English brass rubbings of knights in armour. Don’t miss our worldwide expedition and experience “Our World in Common” on our doorstep!

There will be helium balloons, face painting, a Hog Roast, tea tent and creative adventures for travelers of all ages.. Be sure to come early to have a go at everything.
