Spring Artisan Fayre - Sunday 14 April 2024

A Real Success!

An Event To Remember & More To Come!


Simon and I are so happy that our fundraiser for Mind, the Spring Artisan Fayre - and the first of many - was even more successful than we hoped it would be.

We are thrilled with the lovely, positive comments from the talented artists who had faith in and attended this event, and the numerous encouraging and fabulously supportive remarks made by the visitors who attended in their droves on the day.

The car park filled up within the first 30 minutes of opening and we were pleasantly overwhelmed by the generosity and support shown both in buying raffle tickets to win the beautiful prizes which had been created and donated by each and every one of our wonderful artisans, as well as the donations and purchases from our pop-up café.

ALL the profits are going to Mind, a charity that Simon and I hold dear to our hearts and for whom we've fundraised in the past.

We raised a fantastic £1000 for MIND!

WORKSHOPS & ATTRACTIONS 

Most of our artists demonstrated their crafts throughout the day, but we also had some scheduled workshops & services that could be pre-booked, including:


Indian Head Massages

Tracey from the fabulous Remedy Room in Denver offered the chance to pre-book your 30-minute relaxing Indian head massage for a fabulous £20.00 on the day!


Sugarcraft Workshops

You could decorate a trio of beautiful blossom biscuits with Claire from the wonderful Cake Occasions, by Claire!​


Mosaic Coaster Workshops

You created your own sparkly mosaic coaster with Muni from the amazing Muni's Mosaics!


Fenland Folklore Stories


You were able to join Lizzie on her Tales from the Fen stand to see a lino printing demonstration with a difference!

Lizzie talked about how Fenland folklore has inspired her work with the help of storyteller, Marianne, who shared some of the stories that have inspired the artwork presented by Tales from the Fen.
