Woolly Good May Half Term
Spin your half term into something wool-derful this May.
Join us at Leeds Industrial Museum to be one of the firsts to explore our new felt exhibition Untangled and discover our new fungi trail. We’ll be finding our roots in nature this half-term!
There’ll be wet felting activites on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Get creative as you learn to wet felt in what was once the world’s largest woollen mill. Experiment with colour and texture to create a woolly beautiful work to take home.
Included in Admission.
