New(t) Artwork




On Sunday 11th August New Ferry Butterfly Park will be unveiling a new interactive artwork for children by artist Pam Sullivan at 1.45 p.m.

The artwork consists of 'guess how many newt larvae in the pond' and various 'lift the flap' games, as well as an actual insect habitat. We hope local children will have lots of fun identifying all the creatures on the work.

This will be followed at 2 p.m. by a Fruit Picking Workshop and we will have a Foraging Walk showing what edible plants we have on site. 

It’s also our annual volunteers BBQ on the day so we hope to share and eat some of the plants with our burgers and hotdogs.

The Open Day is free and will include games, the BBQ, a cake sale and a raffle. All are welcome to come along, from 12 - 4 p.m.

The photo shows a sneak preview of the newts - only a very small part of the overall artwork by Pam. We hope you can make it along on the day.
