Our popular Craft & Art Fair returns to showcase the work of some of the best local and regional craft makers and artists.
Meet, browse and buy from over 50 selected exhibitors at each fair, showcasing some of the best jewellery, glass, ceramics, textiles, printmaking, painting, wood, stationery, homewares, accessories, artisan foods and more from across our region.
Our galleries, shop and café will also be open for a full day experience of the centre.
Booking is recommended beforehand however we also encourage people to drop-in on the day of the fair. Children and adults all require tickets but pricing is up to the individual.
The Fair will also feature the sale of work from the late Alan Caine who passed away in 2023. With Eleanor Hartley, working alongside Sir Richard Attenborough, Alan helped conceive, fund, design and launch the Attenborough Centre for Disability and the Arts, now the Attenborough Arts Centre, in 1997. Alan’s estate has very kindly donated his work for sale to help raise essential funds for Attenborough Arts Centre. All donations will help us to continue to ensure everyone can access the arts, and fund some very much needed equipment to help disabled children, young people and adults enjoy their creative journey in our spaces. All of his artwork will be sold as pay-what-you-can.
