Join us at Dove Cottage and help us get into the Christmas spirit – and be introduced to some Christmas 'spirits'. We will begin in the Learning Space with hot chocolate, gingerbread, dressing up and a spooky Gothic craft to get us into the mood. Then we will go into the dark, candlelit atmosphere of Dove Cottage to hear some seasonal supernatural tales: from Scrooge's meeting with the ghostly Jacob Marley in London, to the sometimes helpful, sometimes mischievous supernatural beings that might be hiding somewhere in the Cumbrian landscape this festive season.
For families with children aged 5+ (younger siblings can also be booked onto this session). Children £10, adults £5.
