Everyday of the Festival Emmanuel Hall will be packed with craft activities, our resident library and story-based activities for families to enjoy together.

Silly Squirrel
The brilliant Above Bounds will be sharing their pop-up performance, Silly Squirrel, a playful story with puppets, gentle interaction and lots of laughs!
The Story Store
Watch an interactive performance at THE STORY STORE. With the help of Mich and Emma (our Dynamic Duo of Librarians) local folktales will merge with new epics collected from Exeter schoolchildren and be brought to life through visual storytelling, imaginative play and puppetry. Join in and help us fill in the gaps, put the pieces back together or make some silly story stylings of your own!
Build a world out of cardboard
And while you’re here you can help us build a new world out of cardboard at our interactive exhibition that you can add to all week…
