Join us for free family events such as crafts, games, talks and workshops suitable for for all ages. As well as activities there will be information stalls hosted by local organizations there every day with information on getting involved in your local area. Events will be taking place throughout the summer on the grassed area adjacent to Kingston Museum on Wheatfield Way (where the unique umbrella tree can be found). Come play, and have fun following the challenging year we have all experienced.
