About this event

Bring your family to Curve for a free, creative day made for children and families.

Curve will be full of play, colour, music and imagination. Families are invited to come along and enjoy creative activities in a relaxed, friendly space. You do not have to be seeing a show to take part as this day is open to everyone.

Children aged 0 – 13 with their families can:

  • build and play in a giant cardboard city
  • explore sound and music
  • invent stories­ and imaginary worlds
  • create freely and at their own pace

How long you stay is up to you, whatever works best for your family’?

The day is created with local artists and families with young people’s voices at the front. Whether it’s your first visit or you know Curve well the event will be open, playful and for everyone.

The show Les-tah to the Front is happening on the same day – book now for a show full of kindness, fun and electrifying punk vibes.
