Our Heritage Week Celebration of Craft is almost here!
I hope that many of you will come to join us on Saturday 19th September.
There will be many different crafts for you to observe and some for you to try for free!

We have Lace Makers in action.
Rag Rug making, Quilling and Origami for you to experience.

There will be some information about The History of Dorset Button making and an opportunity to try your hand at this 17th Century craft

We have the amazing Mahawa Keita a local Community Fibre Artist who uses textiles and often non – conventional materials in her artwork. She will give you some colourful, contemporary and creative fun ways to use the Dorset Button technique to make your own piece.

Our wonderful volunteers have been working hard in Old Yardley Park. Litter picking, planting, pruning and weeding.

Our thanks to the Council Parks Team for their work on the Yew hedges of our Parterre- looking good!
Ps we are lucky to have Yew hedges - many formal gardens have lost Parterres and mazes due to the Box Moth.
