“We love hosting Makers’ Fairs at the Art Gallery and Museum – they’re a wonderful celebration of local craft and an ideal chance to treat yourself or loved ones. There are so many talented creatives out there and it’s lovely to welcome them here.” Tracey Ayre, Events Officer at the Art Gallery and Museum.
