About the Event

Join us on this exciting and fun evening full of bugs and stuff!

Guy Tansley of 'bugsnstuff' will be here with his wonderful world of insects, snakes and some other amazing creatures for you to meet!

The bugsnstuff 'staff' includes some of the following: Giant Land Snails, Scorpions and Millipedes from Africa, Hissing Cockroaches from Madagascar, Stick and Leaf Insects from Asia, Tarantulas from Mexico, Corn Snakes from America, Blue-tongued Skinks, Tree Frogs and Spiny-tailed Monitor lizards from Australia.

Families will discover how the different creatures hear, smell, taste, see, move, grow and feed compared with us.  How they use their senses to hunt and the wonders of camouflage and how they move about - Guy explains the leap of the frog, slither of a snake, swaying of a stick insect and the strike of a praying mantis!

Having travelled from rainforest to deserts, Guy can tell you first hand about the sights and sounds of these magnificent places and the amazing creatures that live there.

Tickets for the workshop are limited, so book soon to avoid missing out.

Tickets £9 per person.  Everyone attending needs to purchase a ticket.

Our cafe will be open for other refreshments.
