Its time to get excited about trees and plants! Come and celebrate the start of National Tree Week at the Building Exploratory

This year's National Tree Week takes place across the country from 24th November to 5th December. From walks to talks to story telling and tree dressing, the start of the tree planting season celebrates the diversity of life ­ everywhere.

On Saturday November 27 the Building Exploratory are offering a creative family workshop that's celebrates trees and other natural materials: in the city! Because city life doesn't have to be all concrete, steel and glass ­ parks and gardens are just as vital and important to our urban environments as buildings.

Using our imaginations, plus wood, straw, stone, and other organic materials, you the chance to make a 2D design of a building.

Please note this free workshop will allow visitors to browse the Building Exploratory's unique exhibition, but pre-booking is advised.

To book please call 020 7275 8555 or mail@buildingexploratory.org.uk
