Family Whittling
Suitable for ages 6-8. £7 per child (an adult MUST accompany child).
Join us in the garden at Amersham Museum for a family whittling workshop inspired by the Chilterns’ heritage craft of green woodworking and bodging. Using locally grown green wood, children aged 6–8 and their adults will learn safe knife skills and simple whittling techniques to make a wooden wand or play knife to take home. A fun, beginner-friendly introduction to woodland crafts for families to enjoy together.
Part of Bucks Culture Open Weekend.
