Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 2 Nov, 13:22 · Archive
Florence Arts Centre in Egremont is hosting its first Craftmas event on Saturday, November 7, from 11am to 4pm, bringing seasonal activities to West Cumbria. The day will feature stalls from local Cumbrian artists and entrepreneurs selling handmade gifts, alongside mulled wine, mince pies and a drop-in craft station. Visitors can also relax to live instrumental carols while exploring the centre.
A ceramic workshop will run from 12pm to 2pm, giving people the chance to make their own Christmas clay ornaments. The workshop costs £20 and includes firing and glazing. Ornaments can feature prints from children or pets and are made using non-toxic clay, making the workshop suitable for families with young children.
Once fired, each ornament will be ready to hang on the tree, with collection expected to take around six weeks. A spokesperson for Florence Arts Centre said the event aims to help visitors 'create a special keepsake to treasure for years to come'.
