Join local artist David Draws and become a young palaeontologist for the day. Using just a few dinosaur bones as inspiration, you’ll create your own artwork of an amazing prehistoric creature – just like the Crystal Palace Dinosaurs.

You’ll use paper, card, glue, colouring pens and pencils to bring your creature to life. No artistic or dinosaur expertise needed!
