Youngsters have been invited to take part in a series of workshops at Otley's Courthouse Arts Centre during half term.

A week of Mystery, Magic and Making, supported by Otley's Victorian Fair, will be the theme of the workshops for children aged between five and 12. They will run from Tues-day, February 12, to Friday, February 15.

Children have the chance to make magical materials and a Scroll of Spells and write in invisible ink using a quill pen. Also in the series will be workshops on juggling, magic tricks and drama.

All workshops cost £4. Parents must accompany children aged between five and seven and places should be booked in advance.
