Spend a relaxed Sunday at Mosman's Headland Park, where storytelling, music and hands-on creativity bring joy for all ages.
Marvel at The Giants, a large-scale puppet performance and community workshop by Curious Legends, help create Walangari's sand painting and get playful with the Musical Garden by Junkyard Beats. Try your hand at a paint class with the School of Fine Arts, learn weaving techniques with the Mosman Girl Guides or join a guided bush walk with the Mosman Parks & Bushland Association.
There's plenty more to explore: garden games, a marble run and live music from Isobel Knight setting the mood throughout the afternoon. Plus, watch the Headland Park Artists at work at the Studio Open Day. Frenchy's Cafe will ensure you won't go hungry or bring a picnic.
