Pokémon joins Calke Abbey's Summer of Play

Calling Pokémon fans new and old! This Summer of Play, Pokémon are jumping into the great outdoors near you. Are you ready to share the magic with a new generation? From Saturday 18 July - Sunday 6 September, on top of an already jam-packed Summer of Play, discover all-new Pokémon zones. Get stuck into the Pokémon Trading Card Game, flex your skills and collect Mega Evolution stickers! Discover Pokémon zones in participating locations. Don’t forget your imagination... Alongside the Pokémon zone, the Garden of Imagination returns as our Summer of Play hub in the gardens. Fun for all the family, including dogs on short leads, you can stay and play all day with places to find shelter and shade whatever the weather. Come back and enjoy the fun all summer long with Calke Crafternoons every Tuesday and Thursday (pre-booking required) or pop along to enjoy a drop-in storytelling session in the shade. Expect the return of some of your favourite activities like Little Calke Village, suitable for imaginative little ones as well as dressing up and musical instruments. For slightly older explorers, head to the Fun and Games zone for football, disc golf and soft archery, or challenge the whole family to a sports day race. After all that playing, you can find the Zen Zone hidden away to chill out with a book or a spot of cloud gazing. Raining outside? Take your Summer of Play indoors with activities inside the house, from jigsaws to dressing up.

Pressed in Time: Create Your Own Herbarium Sheet

Discover a fascinating and little-seen part of Calke Abbey’s natural history collection in this thoughtful two-hour evening session inspired by the historic herbarium. You’ll have the opportunity to discover part of the collection and learn more about the plants, records and stories it holds, as this important aspect of Calke’s collection begins to be shared more openly with the public. Taking inspiration from the herbarium itself, you’ll then create your own herbarium sheets, exploring the beauty of plant preservation, observation and botanical storytelling, and beginning your own Herbarium journey. Blending creativity, curiosity and a closer look at Calke’s natural heritage, this session offers a rare chance to engage with the past while making something of your own to take away.
