Capturing Chippenham’s Wild Side
2026-05-20 16:30 - 17:30 | Chippenham Museum, 9-10 Market Pl, Chippenham, SN15 3HF, United Kingdom
This spring, Chippenham Museum Photo Club will be heading out and about to explore the local wildlife. From riverscapes to wildflower meadows, there is so much to see and enjoy in and around our town, and the group will be busy on their club nights capturing the wild and wonderful with their cameras.
Led by experienced photographer Steve Jones from The Little Photo Company, Photo Club will be running two special edition sessions. Would you like to join in?
Session 1: Wednesday 8 April, 2pm – 3.30pm
The group will be heading to Westmead Open Space, a wonderful wildlife hotspot. We will spend an afternoon exploring this beautiful riverside green, space managed by Chippenham Borough Lands Charity.
Session 2: Wednesday 20 May, 4.30pm – 5.30pm
The group will be exploring Vincients Wood, a semi-natural broadleaved woodland, managed by Wiltshire Wildlife Trust.
As well as developing practical camera skills, we will investigate the areas and learn more about our local wildlife and natural environment.
These special one-off sessions are free and open to any young person aged 11-17. No photography experience is needed. All cameras are welcome, including mobile phones, and a club camera is available to borrow if required.
You will also have the opportunity to have your work celebrated in a public exhibition during Chippenham’s Eco Future Fest on Sunday 14 June. Eco Future Fest is a community festival celebrating our natural world and all things sustainable. The event will take place at Chippenham Town Hall from 11am to 4pm.
Places are limited, so booking via Eventbrite is essential.

A Big Egg
2026-05-28 14:30 - 15:30 | The Neeld
The Neeld Community and Arts Centre presents…
A Big Egg, by Steven Lee
From the Story Time series of family musicals by the creators of There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly.
Join children’s author Steven Lee in his magical writing shed, where stories hatch before your eyes!
When Steven’s mischievous neighbour’s dog mistakes him for an egg, he takes refuge among his books and toys and soon finds himself writing a brand-new story with a little help from the audience.
Together, your children and Steven dream up a tale about two siblings, Jack and Molly, who go on a quest to find the biggest egg in the world. From quails and chickens to geese, emus and ostriches, each egg brings a new surprise – until a truly big egg hatches something beyond their wildest dreams!
Packed with laughter, puppetry, songs, gentle humour and live interaction, A Big Egg is a joyful celebration of family, curiosity and the magic of storytelling. Children help shape the story, call out ideas, and even get to be guardians of the animals!
Full of heart and imagination, A Big Egg is the perfect family treat – a story about love, wonder, and the joy of discovering life’s little miracles together.
Ideal for ages 2 to 102.

Dotty the Elf thinks Santa is planning a surprise Christmas party, Pompom the Penguin thinks Santa has been making Christmas crackers, and Dasher the Reindeer thinks Santa has got their biggest Christmas tree ever – do you think they’re right? Or do the other reindeer know? They all seem very excited in their stable…”

Songs include children’s favourites Jingle Bells, The Hokey Cokey, Away In A Manger, Baby Shark, The Twelve Days Of Christmas, We Wish You A Merry Christmas, and many more!
