Massive demand for tickets to the Aardman Animations workshops at Dreamland next month have led to an extra day of model-making fun.
The famous animation studio is hosting three model making workshops at Dreamland on Saturday, February 15, where ticket holders can craft one of their favourite Aardman characters -including Morph, Gromit and Shaun the Sheep- and watch a few of their favourite films.
Following demand for tickets, Dreamland has added a second date for people to indulge in some model-making fun, with three extra sessions now available to book on Sunday, February 16.
Aardman Animations will host three, one hour workshops each day where guests will create their very own clay models of either Shaun the Sheep, Gromit or Morph to take home. Led by one of the studio’s expert model makers, visitors also get the opportunity to ask questions about the tricks of the trade from an Aardman professional.
There will be screenings of some of the studio’s best loved films throughout the day including Wallace and Gromit’s various adventures – A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers, A Close Shave, A Matter of Loaf and Death – and Shaun the Sheep: The Farmer’s Llamas.
Workshop tickets cost £12 (£10 for Dreamland members) and include access to the screenings. Spaces are limited to 60 people per workshop and advance booking is strongly advised.
