MUD PIE ARTS
Spring 2025
'The storyteller was fantastic - she was evidently very experienced with young children and had them captivated from the off. Both of mine were grumpy when they arrived but within a minute, they were really absorbed by how interactive the storytelling was and how many of their ideas she included. ' Feedback at The Fungi Festival 2024
Find us storytelling out and about this Spring:

And will you dare to stand up to Brutus, the invading bark beetle, as he devours every forest in his way?
Find out with Mud Pie Arts. Together, we will act out these bold tales of bombastic beasties!
May half term is the perfect time to go bug hunting, so come along to learn more with our spinner of yarns, Jenna Drury.
