Event times:
Saturday 16th & Sunday 17th March, 10am – 5pm
Explore the wealth of talent over five floors of our beautiful listed building.
See how work is produced and chat with the artists about their processes and materials: art, design, jewellery, glass, furniture, architecture, music, printmaking, painting, pottery, textiles and more!
Buy direct! You can commission items as well as buy “off the wall”.
Most makers now take debit/credit cards (but best to arm yourselves with some cash!).
