Splatterday
Inspired by the Hindu festival of Holi (festival of colours), celebrate spring with the Forestry Commission in this FREE event. Enjoy face painting, a colour hunt, fancy head-dress parade and help create a 'splat-tastic' canvas of colour (1-2.30pm or 3-4.30pm).
Join Ravinda Cheema in a lively, fun, cardio Bollywood dance workshop learning great new moves (1.30-2.30pm or 3-4pm).
Also create beautiful rangoli Indian art decorations to take home with GemArts Suzy Galbraith (drop in workshop 12.30-4.30pm).
Children must be supervised. You may get splattered so wear some old but colourful clothes. Suitable for all ages and abilities, places limited and booking recommended.
Part of the Kielder Festival of Lanterns.
