Pop-Up Puzzles

OTTER's Pop-Up Puzzles

"Can you open me??"

A call to play, every 2nd and 4th weekend of the month, throughout Autumn / Winter

OTTER's new [Mini] Bristol Art Quest will see pop-up puzzles appearing all over Bristol throughout Autumn / Winter.

Each lockbox asks the question, "Can you open me?"

We love playing games with people and this is a fun way to share the joy of play with the people of Bristol throughout the colder, darker months.

We change the themes of the puzzles each session, sometimes basing them on artworks, sometimes, historical buildings and sometimes they are standalone, playful riddles. We hope that each time we encourage people to learn more about their city. We often tie in historical facts and local observations meaning peope have to look around and explore to solve each of the puzzles.

Next Mini Quest = 14 /15 February 2026

Competition time!

Everyone who solves the puzzle and opens the puzzleboxes is in the runnings to win a numbered and signed OTTER print. Just send us proof of the opened lockbox and we'll enter you in the competition for that weekend. The first few people who open the boxes will also get a bonus gift so it pays to be there early!
