Magical Mask Making
From mystical creatures to wild animals, kids can design and decorate their own masks using an exciting mix of materials—glitter, sequins, feathers, and more! Explore different cultural traditions while creating something truly unique. Also great for getting ready for the Family Parade on Saturday afternoon!

Craft beautiful keepsakes with the Natural Necklaces workshop! Using wooden beads, colorful flowers, and nature-inspired charms, children can design their own one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces to wear and treasure.
Stick Structures
Calling all young engineers! Stick Structures lets kids build mini masterpieces with popsicle sticks, glue, markers, and decorations. Will they create a tiny house, an epic bridge, or something completely new?
Pet-Rock Painting
Turn an ordinary rock into an extraordinary friend! With a rainbow of paints and plenty of creative inspiration, kids can transform pebbles into colorful creatures, funny faces, or magical monsters. Great fun for sharing with others.

Get hands-on with the Weave Wall, a giant, colorful installation where kids can weave vibrant ribbons, yarn, and fabric strips to create a collaborative piece of festival art. A tactile, creative adventure awaits!

Let imaginations run wild at the Costume Corner, where a dazzling collection of outfits awaits! Children can mix and match colorful costumes, transforming into their favorite characters, animals, or mythical creatures. Who will they become today?
