Celebrating local craftsmanship
Take part in a series of exciting workshops across the town. Visitors can make a buckle with artist Lise Bennett or a mini banner with artist Ursula Rae – you can even work together to make a brand new willow sculpture with artist Maggie Cooper in Old Bolsover Yard. There will be a display of lanterns from the Bolsover Lantern Parade to showcase the talent of local people and a Teenage Market, giving young people the opportunity to make and sell their work. Drop in for a film screening in the library or walk to the Parish Rooms to see a display of work and workshops by the Creative Women’s Network.
Programmed by Junction Arts.
