✨Last chance to book your place on tomorrow's Cell Block Boogie! ✨

One, two, three, four… Something’s going down on the cell block floor… The Victorian prisoners are stomping their feet, rattling their bars, and dancing along to the cell block boogie. But what happens when the warden catches wind of the beat? Will he shut down the jam or join in the dance?🎵

Join Ripon Museums at the library for a Cell Block Boogie! ✨

📍Ripon Library
🗓️Wednesday 5th August
⏰10.30am

The story will run for approximately 20 minutes, followed by 40 minutes of play with all the props. Make sure to book your place!
As we will be dancing, singing and playing instruments, this session will be loud! There will be ear defenders available to use, and you are welcome to bring your own. 🎵✨
