Big Bird Day : Swanning About with Artist Ami Marsden
Create your own spectacular swan costume with artist Ami Marsden, then waddle, swoop and glide your way through Newton House.
Get ready to spread your wings at Dinefwr's Big Bird Day!
Join artist Ami Marsden for a hands-on family workshop where you'll create your very own larger-than-life cardboard swan costume. Inspired by the birds and wildlife that call Dinefwr home, you'll use your imagination to transform into one of nature's most graceful creatures.
