|
|

When was the last time you got lost in a story?
Gather round the storytelling chair for book readings each Wednesday from July 29th to August 26th between 11 and 12pm.
Look out for the storytelling chair in the Department Of Nature near the Broadmead entrance.
As always, everyone is welcome!

We’ve been getting creative at Sparks making two tiny fairy doors that will be hidden on our ground floor as part of the Bristol BID’s Playful Summer Fairy Door Trail.
Bring the family to Broadmead to start the search!
Who will be the first to find all the doors?

At Sparks we’ve got the skills to mend the things you love.
Kids Kick pop up will be mending sports boots on the 25th July and our very own Sparks Repair Café are holding a Tool Repair Workshop on the Sunday 26th.
For fixing your favourite clothes, Meret at The Slow Fashion Studio is your girl and on the 13th August Granny Janny will be on hand to fix up cuddly toys in need of some TLC.
