Forthcoming Craft Fairs

That’s the Stamford Artisans Guild Summer Craft Fair out of the way.  I think we all had a good day. Some of the comments from the stall holders made me feel so good As the event organiser I was worried…

So what do we have to look forward to now over the next couple of months?

Craft Fayre at The Big Barn, Top Lodge, Fineshade Woods -  I love my monthly visits to Fineshade Woods. Great atmosphere, meeting friends, a good gossip and lots of beautiful dogs! It’s always a Saturday well spent. I will be ta Fineshade on Saturday, 7th August & Saturday, 4th September 2010

Arts and Crafts Fair at Barnsdale Gardens – 29 August 2010 – I am awaiting more details about this event and will update once I know. I do know that several; Stamford Artisans Guild members will have stalls at this event. I will be in my gazebo somewhere in the gardens but have not been informed the full details yet.

The Green Dragon, Brigstock – 30 August 2010 – Bank Holiday Monday – Our friend Mark is the boss and head chef at this beautiful Restaurant & Inn which dates back to the 18th century. The Green Dragon has been recently refurbished and has a really comfortable atmosphere. The Green Dragon is now proposing monthly craft events for local craftspeople to showcase their talent. The stalls will be in the Car park, garden area and also a few stalls indoors. Mark has kindly extended an invitation to members of the Stamford Artisans Guild too and I have confirmed my participation. If other local artists and makers are interested in being there please contatc me by leaving a comment on this page and I will send you more details.

Gardener’s Market at Easton Walled Gardens – 10.00 am -4.00 pm - Sunday 12th September 2010 – This will be my first visit to Easton Walled Gardens and I am quite looking forward to it. I have a chat and a laugh with the ladies on Twitter and it would be good to finally meet up.

Stamford Artisans Guild Autumn Craft Fair – 26th September 2010 at my favourite venues of all – The Stamford Arts Centre. I WILL be there – Stamford’s own hand-made shopping event for talented local craftspeople and selected visiting artisans.
