🌱 CALLING BABY TESTERS! 🌱

📅 Testing dates: Monday 20 & Tuesday 21 April

We’re looking for families with babies aged 0–18 months to help test and shape the exhibition before it officially opens.

Join us at The Beaney House of Art & Knowledge on Monday 20 or Tuesday 21 April for a special Soft Robotics Testing session as part of Playground Festival, and be among the first to experience The Garden by Makers of Imaginary Worlds.

As a tester, you’ll: ✨ Explore a gentle, imaginative garden filled with plants, flowers and soft sculptural creatures
✨ Play with sensory soft robotics designed especially for very young children
✨ Share feedback directly with the artists to help shape the final experience

The Garden is a calm, enchanting space created for early discovery where little ones can explore at their own pace.

👶 For babies aged 0–18 months (siblings welcome)
📍 The Beaney House of Art & Knowledge, Canterbury
🕥 Multiple short sessions across both days
🎟️ FREE tickets – BOOKING ESSENTIAL

Spaces are limited – if you’d like to be a tester and try something new with your baby, book now (link in comments)
