A little look back at some of our workshops that happened last year thanks to the support of our local community! We were able to fundraise a fantastic amount to put on a great selection of free creative events suitable for all ages and abilities 😍 we want to do the same this year!

We will be running 22nd-29th of August in the centre of Lancaster and if you fancy taking part in this year's event please consider supporting our crowdfund campaign over at spacehive.com/lancaster-art-fair--creative-activities (link in bio)

Any amount of public support shows big funders we have the community behind us and makes it more likely that they will support the project too!
