Aardman Model Making Workshop
Join expert Aardman model maker, Jim Parkyn for one of two special Shaun the Sheep model making workshops in W5 on Thursday 4th August.
In these fun hands-on sessions, you’ll get creative with clay and make your own Shaun the Sheep model to take home with you. Jim has worked on some of Aardman’s best-loved films, including Wallace & Gromit, Chicken Run and Shaun the Sheep and will share his insights into the wonderful world of Aardman.
Workshops will take place at 2pm and 4pm on Thursday 4th August. Places are limited to 60 people per session and cost £7 per child.
This is an add-on experience, which can be purchased by visitors booking to visit W5 on this date. Grown-ups don’t need to purchase a ticket unless they want to make a character too! Early booking is advised to avoid disappointment.
