Step into a storybook this summer
This summer, Cabot Circus is turning the taps on creativity with Once a Pond a Time, a full-blown wonderland created by Bristol’s own Alex Lucas. Right in the heart of Quakers Friars, this immersive art exhibition is made for all ages. Kids will love it. Adults might love it even more. Drop in for pop-up paintings, giant games, reading nooks, and the kind of charm only Bristol can deliver.
