Open day and Grand opening

To celebrate our move to our new premises, we’ll be holding an Open Afternoon on Saturday, 21st April, from 2pm to 5pm. Members of the public are welcome to come and see a display of our work, and to try some hands on spinning and weaving.

We’ll have an short ‘Opening Ceremony’ at around 3.30pm, with champagne to celebrate, and afternoon tea to follow.

Update: We’re delighted that our local member of State Parliament, Richard Torbay, will be able to attend  our Opening.
