About this event

Storytale Studio July – junk journals

Join us on Saturday 25 July, 10am-12pm, for a fun and creative junk journal workshop inspired by the library!

Using recycled papers, old book pages (not from our library books though 😮), magazines, maps, tickets and other found treasures, you’ll create a unique journal to fill with memories, stories and imagination.

Perfect for all ages, this relaxed session celebrates creativity and the joy of exploring books together.

The session is free to attend, and there’s no need to book – just drop in.

Storytale Studio is a series of free, family-friendly craft workshops running throughout 2026, inspired by the rich collection of books held at Kresen Kernow – the largest collection about Cornwall. From folklore and history to picture books and contemporary stories, these sessions bring Cornwall’s stories to life through creative, hands-on activities.

Alongside the craft, you can explore themed book displays, follow family-friendly trails, and discover new stories together.

The sessions are led by artist and workshop facilitator Sophie Stanley-Butcher (Pop Up Paint Pot) and are designed to be welcoming and accessible for all ages.

Storytale Studio is a collaboration with Redruth Library and is funded by SWRLS.
