Guthrie the Goose playfully introduces our youngest visitors to a different artwork or theme each month. Sessions can include a mixture of music, dance, crafts and games. Guthrie likes to get messy, so you might like to dress down, bring an old towel and a change of clothes. Suitable for pre-school children ages 2–5 years and children must be accompanied by an adult. We have limited space for buggies – please use the buggy park at the main entrance.
