Elf Workshop

Running on Various dates in December - Elf Workshop at the Dorset Museum & Art Gallery.

Every January, the North Pole buzzes with excitement as we kickstart our preparations for Christmas.

Throughout the entire year, we work diligently to make the holiday season as wonderful as possible. We put in long hours, often working 60-hour weeks without taking any holidays. It can get quite challenging at times, and we even get our fair share of papercuts. But when you open your Christmas presents on that special morning, remember the love and dedication that goes into each one, alongside a little bit of elfin magic.

This year, we find ourselves a tad behind schedule, and we’re on the lookout for some eager trainee elves to join our crew and lend a hand! You’re invited to embark on a magical journey filled with Christmas crafts, fun activities, and the chance to learn all the secrets of the elves. From crafting Christmas goodies and writing letters to Santa to running the Wrapping Station, offering glitter tattoos, and enjoying story time, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy. Upon successfully completing the workshop, you’ll leave with an official North Pole Certificate personally signed by our Chief Elf.
