Enjoy October Half Term at the Sainsbury Centre

Visit the Sainsbury Centre this Half Term for fun activities and artistic inspiration for all the family.

Every day, you’ll find Explorer Tools to keep small hands busy and help you all to see the inhabitants of our Living Area in different ways. Grab a clipboard or sit at the drawing table and make your own artworks with paper and pencil.

Seeking something new?

Head downstairs to see the exhibitions Power Plants and Ayahuasca and the Art of the Amazon. Featuring colourful paintings and textiles and patterned animal sculptures, all ages will find something to intrigue them. 5-11 year olds can pick up a Plant Heroes decoder to reveal secret messages throughout these exhibitions.

Fancy a breath of fresh air?

Pick up a Pocket Map of the Sculpture Park and meet artworks such as Lawrence Edwards’ Man of Stones and Leiko Ikemura’s Usagi Kannon in an open-air autumnal setting. Will you find an acorn from our ancient oak trees, or see grey squirrels hopping about collecting them to store for the winter?
