THANK YOU FOR JOINING US AT CHELTENHAM

Good Afternoon! 

I hope this finds you well.

A Huge Thank You if you visited us at Craft Festival in Cheltenham last weekend.

We had a fabulous 3 days at Cheltenham Town Hall, thank you for supporting British making. 
 
Keith did us proud, opening the show and opening his heart about his life in clay. We also heard about Sue Pryke's life and Kate Strasdin lifted the lid on the importance of cloth in all our histories. 

It was really exciting seeing so many people and I'm pleased to say that visitor figures are now back up to pre-pandemic numbers which is great news! 

Huge congrats to all our award winners: 

Craft Festival Best in Show: Rowena Dugdale from Red Ruby Rose (textiles)
Find a Maker Best New Business : John Crossley from All in the Making (wood)
Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre Showcase Award : Sally Adkins (print)

Sincere thanks goes to our volunteers and supporters Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre, Unit 12, QEST and Find a Maker. 

I hope to see you at Craft Festival Bovey Tracey on June 9-11 and again at Cheltenham Town Hall from November 17-19. 

Thanks again and Best wishes, 

Sarah James & all the team at Craft Festival
