The Fair featured work by more than thirty carefully-selected local artists and craftspeople, from artists to jewellers and ceramics to stained-glass - and offered a relaxed alternative to hectic Christmas shopping in the big cities. As you’re buying direct from the craftspeople & artists - you can also expect to get really special, locally-made gifts, at great prices!
If you can’t make it to the real Fair - you can still contact all of the artists and craftspeople - as their details are right here on this website. If you want to get advance details of the next Designer Arts and Crafts exhibition then please join our mailing list - and we’ll keep you informed!
