Immerse yourself in the interactive origami room designed by York artist Kate Buckley and admire abstract photography collages by York St John Fine Art student Amy Martina.

Outside the garden is more structure and shape at this time of year, however some first buds might be teasing their way out. Visit the new Mediterranean Garden, a brand new space designed by garden designer Andy Sturgeon.

The wilderness play area is on hand to help warm up smaller legs as is the restaurant for hot chocolates or lunch to refuel and make the most of your free day out.
