The Potteries Centre, Hanley, has launched its new series of free crafting activities today (20 February) to mark the release of animated film Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. 

From 20-24 February (10am-4pm), visitors can take part in a number of fun crafting sessions that celebrate the release of the new Puss in Boots film. 

The free events, taking place throughout the week across the shopping centre, include Puss in Boots themed colouring stations, balloon sword making demonstrations and sword painting. 

Visitors and fans of the DreamWorks picture can make a day of it at The Potteries by watching a showing of the new film at the centre's Cineworld, situated on the upper mall. Show times vary and can be found on the Cineworld website.

A series of Puss in Boots themed activities are taking place at The Potteries Centre this half term (The Potteries Centre).

Amy Whittaker, centre manager at The Potteries Centre, said: "With the cost of living on the rise and a raft of school holidays on the horizon, we know that parents will be thinking of ways they can keep their children entertained without breaking the bank.
