The Patchings Festival is known nationally as one of the major outdoor art, craft and design events in the country. This year we had well over 200 exhibitors from all over Britain travelling to Calverton to be part of the 18th annual four day event. Also making the journey were the many visitors, again travelling from all parts to enjoy some of the most talented in their field of art, craft and design. We even know of one family who planned there holiday from New Zealand to be at the Patchings Festival.
Our sincere thanks to all those who took part in this year’s event and helped to create something special for our visitors to enjoy – an experience that many have said will prompt them to join us again next year.
A word of thanks too for the volunteers - Club Members, Art School Students and friends of Patchings , all who give of their time, energy and enthusiasm to help stage the Festival – their involvement makes a huge contribution.
Throughout the year details of all this year’s exhibitors will remain on the Festival pages of our site along with contact details and links to their websites. Please feel to contact these talented people direct if you require further information about them or their work.
Already we look toward 2012 when we have a slight change of date due to the additional Jubilee Bank Holiday the week before. Next year the Festival opens –
THURSDAY 14 TO SUNDAY 17 JUNE 2012.
Please let us know if you are interested in joining us as an exhibitor next year,
we are continually on the look out for new and exciting work. Please remember work on show must be designed and created by the exhibitor.
If your continued interest is as a visitor, once again let us know and we will keep you up to date with developments.
Thank you for your support and interest.
