Autumn Adventures

Join Stroud Valleys Project and the Museum in the Park for this year’s spooktacular autumn adventures!

As well as our family favourite carved pumpkin competition and trail, you can make your own autumnal jam jar lantern, fashion a pumpkin puppet, or stamp some autumnal gift bags. There may be some additional activities announced nearer the time – just watch this space!

You can drop off your carved pumpkins between 2pm and 5pm so that they can be added to our pumpkin trail and entered into the competition.

This is a completely free event and is suitable for all ages. There is no need to book, just drop in at the Museum in the Park anytime between 2.30pm and 6pm. Donations for the Museum in the Park and Stroud Valleys Project welcomed.
