Help artist Diana Burch create a life size baby hippo puppet as part of THE HERDS, a world wide project raising awareness about climate change.

THE HERDS will feature over a hundred life-size animal puppets. Find out more about THE HERDS here: www.theherds.org/what-is-the-herds

During the May half term visitors to Haslemere Educational Museum will work with local artist Diana Burch to create a life sized puppet based on an animal from our natural history collection. The puppet will be made of recycled materials, highlighting the importance of ensuring products we use are as carbon neutral as possible and do not add to climate change. Once made the puppet will be taken to schools and other groups as part of assemblies and talks on climate change and its effects.

Free entry. Drop in without pre-booking.
