Discover the magic of storytelling with our Wonderbox workshop inspired by the stories and scenes of South Tyneside! Join Cabinet of Curiosity Studio for an exciting opportunity to master the art of paper crafts as you create your own 3D Wonderbox. Using collage and folding techniques inspired by the art of tunnel books, you’ll bring to life a vibrant scene that will amaze and inspire.

Tunnel books were originally inspired by theatre sets, where each layer of the book combines to create a three-dimensional scene. These books are often used to tell stories or celebrate historical moments.

This is a free family-friendly drop-in activity suitable for children aged 8 years and older. All materials will be provided, so just bring your imagination. Don't miss this chance to create something wonderful, supported by Arts Council England National Lottery and South Tyneside Council.
