"Batty about Bats” is a junior workshop about bats. The young participants will learn how bats hunt, what they eat and why some of the scary stories about them are nothing more than myths. The event will take place on Wednesday 30th October at 11.30am and 2pm.

"Spooky Tales of an Irish Hallowe'en” will take place on Friday 1st November at 10.00am, 11.30am and 2.00pm. Master storyteller Rab S. Fulton will tell spooky stories about devil, fairies and more.
