If you have an animal-loving young person at home, then an Animal Antiks Alpaca Walk could be just the thing for them this summer!
Our friendly, gentle alpacas love nothing better than getting a walk around the farm and meeting people. The local wildlife is used to us being out and about, so we usually see lots of different birds, rabbits, and sometimes even deer.
Theme: Dinosaur Adventures
Workshops/Physical:
11am Sensory jars
1:30pm Sumo suits
Art: Triceratops mask making and other exciting activities!
CAMPING from 4:30pm
Our special needs sessions were introduced in 2009 after customer comments on how best some of our users might access our activities. Started as a pilot scheme in Milton Keynes for local families with children and adults with special needs, this not for profit event quickly became a regular fixture in the local calendar. Brothers, sisters and friends are all welcome to join in the fun with the freedom and comfort of knowing that the time is suited to them.
Full use of all the facilities will keep even the most energetic children occupied.
Join artist Julia Collar for a magical multi-sensory tour of MK Calling. 2024! Julia will bring a selection of artworks to life through storytelling, object handling, music, and play. This event is designed especially for individuals of all ages with additional and complex support needs, and their families. Makaton signing is used throughout.
Please contact Sophie at sbennett@mkgallery.org if you have any questions or specific access requirements you would like us to know about in advance.
