Have you noticed your beautiful swans and what a lovely park you have there. I took a walk around the pond today and saw two swans building a nest out of reeds, one was sitting on the nest, the other was gathering reeds - wow!
Park Keeper Vic Hobb's will be talking about the wildlife.
So an informal walk, perhaps picking up things to use in a collage. Then a workshop where we can play with a variety of mediums.
