Tangram tile workshop
with Lydia Meiying
Create your own tangram picture in this free, family workshop led by artist Lydia Meiying.
It is believed there are over 6000 different shapes and pictures that can be created with a tangram puzzle.
Tangrams are believed to have originated in China over 200 years ago and are mathematical puzzles that use basic shapes to create larger, or more intricate shapes or objects. A tangram is made up of seven pieces called ‘tans’, which include five triangles, one square and one parallelogram.
This activity is drop-in and suitable for children aged five and over, together with their parents or carers. Younger siblings are welcome too.
