The Local Place's Renee Lane is the organiser of the crafty kids fun fair workshops running on Thursday.

Activities include macrame, knitting and weaving, cookie making, gingerbread cookie decorating and painting.

"It's something to do during the winter school holidays," Ms Lane said.

"Koroit Theatre is a perfect venue because it's all going to be undercover so it doesn't matter what the weather's like outside."

She said the activities were suitable for primary school-aged children but encouraged the whole family to attend as parents must remain onsite.

Ms Lane said there would also be a chill out area where children and their siblings could read a book, do a jigsaw puzzle or have a meal.
