The Greater Manchester art gallery with a ‘giant outdoor studio’ and more this Easter

We’re now well into the first week of the Easter holidays and if you’re looking for something to occupy the kids, then the Whitworth in Manchester may have just what you need. The art gallery, located on the edge of Whitworth Park on Oxford Road, has a range of activities on offer throughout the holidays.

This week it’s been hosting drop-in sessions with the charity Afrocats, which has transformed the gallery’s art garden into a “giant outdoor art studio”. Inspired by the Althea McNish exhibition inside the gallery, the sessions invite families to create their own nature-inspired designs using materials found in nature.

Suitable for all ages from babies to teens, the free sessions have different areas for little ones and for big kids. Although they’re only running for a limited period, there’s still time to check out the last session taking place today (Thursday, April 6) from 12pm to 3pm.
