Drop-in activities
Quick, accessible and entertaining activities run by experienced facilitators. Ideal for events or public spaces.
- Passing trade: engage members of the public as the pass
- Rolling workshops: Activities lasting 5-20 minutes, join and leave at any time
Passing Trade:
Offering an amplified rubber-band for a passer-by to twang as they pass. They don’t even have to stop…
‘TWAAAANGGGG!!’ – mmm it sounds surprisingly good and took just 2 seconds, so maybe they now find that they have time to get their nose tested, it takes less than a minute…
Rolling workshops:
Take part in our Scavengers activities, adapted for drop-in settings. Come-and-go at any time, you can build a Robot Chicken in 5 minutes, or stay and make more contraptions.
Drop-in covers a range of activities and different visitors/participants, with different interests.
At one end they cross-over with our Walkabout; costumed performers demonstrate weird-looking instruments and offer them to you to try. Quick and accessible, suitable for a festival or a public space.
At the other end they cross-over with our Workshops, but the activities are adapted so that people can join and leave at any time, with a range of durations usually from 5-20 minutes.
