Where better to try your hand at building a dam than the Elan Valley. Young engineers can learn how dams are built, then test their skills by constructing one that (hopefully) holds water!
A fun summer session for young engineers. Learn how the Elan Valley dams were made over 120 years ago and have a go at making your own dam! Using a variety of materials, we will design, build and test the new dam creations. In this creative Build A Dam Workshop, young visitors will be able to step back in time to explore the incredible engineering behind Elan Valley’s iconic dams. Perfect for families and curious minds, this workshop invites you to get creative and bring your own miniature dam to life. Will it be watertight? Whether your dam holds water or not, the fun is in the building! This workshop is just £5 - book your place now to avoid disappointment.
