​Market Hall

Information Hub - Demonstrations

Hands-on Activities - Displays - Stalls

​
​Saturday, Sunday and Monday 10am to 4pm

​
So much of art grows out of the stories we want to share - the stories we tell each other

and those we tell ourselves as we discover what is within us
​
And every art medium involves the story of its process; how something is made is a tale in itself
Picture
This year at the Market Hall you can explore the relationship between art and storytelling through puppetry, bookmaking, poetry, play and creative crafting. 

Visit The Drawing Room and place your marks on a huge collaborative artwork. Watch skilled artisans demonstrate their craft and learn about the history, resources and inspiration involved. 
 
Each day of the festival will have a different programme of possibilities for you to try your hand at, enjoy, and explore.
 
The Market Hall is the Festival Information Hub, with details and updates on all venues, events, exhibitions and timings.
