Unfortunately this event has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

Peter Worley, of the Philosophy Foundation, comes to the festival this year to take children (aged 8 – 14) on an interactive philosophical adventure. Your young philosophers may be shrunk or made to disappear, learn how to perform telepathy and telekinesis or perform silent music. Worley promises to return them the correct size and visible, although their minds might have been stretched a bit.
