Sparky Saturdays: Carrier Bags

Design a stamp and make your own customised paper bags, and turn used plastic bags into lightcatchers. Explore how M&S and shoppers have adopted new habits to be kinder to the environment.

Bring the whole family to explore our exhibition and enjoy a cuppa.

You can also browse our dressing-up rails, try the Percy Trail and go shopping in the Penny Bazaar.

Free light refreshments included, or bring a packed lunch and use our indoor picnic space.

Have a look at our Family Visits page to find out more about getting here and what to expect.

Booking details: No need to book, just drop in – it’s all free!
