Come to Life
One of the highlights of the day will be the opportunity to experience the creative process firsthand.
Visitors will be able to watch live demonstrations taking place at various points throughout the day, discover the tools and techniques used by our makers and hear firsthand about the skill, time and care that goes into creating each piece.
Whether you're a lifelong art enthusiast or simply curious about how something is made, it's a wonderful opportunity to discover the craftsmanship behind the finished creations.
A Personal Touch to
Your Christmas Gifts
Buying something handmade is already special, but meeting the person who made it makes it even more meaningful.
As part of the day, customers purchasing work from our visiting artists and makers will have the opportunity to receive a special artist statement, personally signed by its creator.
These statements will share a little about the artist and their work, providing a lovely personal keepsake to accompany a Christmas gift.
Selected creations will also be available for personalisation, offering the opportunity to give something truly individual this Christmas.
