Event Description

Join us for an exclusive preview of Think Outside the Box — an imaginative group experience for families with children aged 6 to 12 at our Library Labs (Lab Central and Lab FX).

This exciting new activity invites you to dive into a story-filled box, solve intriguing puzzles, and complete the mission together as a team. This is a shared experience designed for the whole group — grown-ups and children alike. Everyone needs to join in, work together, and enjoy the challenge as a family.

We are running 6 sessions at Redbridge Central Library on Saturday 6 September and at Fullwell Cross Library on Saturday 20 September; please check all the details on BookWhen.

What to expect:

— On arrival you will complete a short onboarding activity to introduce the experience
— You will then take part in the hands-on challenge using our first prototype box kit
— We will finish with a quick feedback session to help us improve the experience.

Your feedback matters! This session is part of our testing phase ahead of a wider launch in October.

This project is supported by Libraries Connected and Arts Council England through the National Lottery.
