About

The Lightbox is especially useful in a family file because it is more flexible than a full-day attraction. Official information highlights workshops for adults, families, children and young people, which gives it a stronger family case than a gallery with no hands-on element.\n\nThat makes it one of Woking's better rainy-day choices for children who enjoy making, learning and exploring without needing a whole day on site.
