Onlookers choosing their gifts.
Crafted 2012 held on 23rd and 24th of June again proved to be a big hit with the local community with over 720 visitors over the weekend. Overall the craftspeople had a good weekend seeing plentiful sales and contacts made. The weather was kind to us with sunshine pouring through the gallery windows at The Atkins, where trade was also brisk at Café Impressions café Bar. Creative Hinckley piloted a new layout of panels which was well received by the stall holders so will be repeated for the Christmas Art & Craft Fair ‘Glitter Arti’ 2012 on November 17th and 18th. 10 tables were booked by craftspeople for Glitter Arti during the CRAFTED weekend, so please don’t hang about if you want a table. Book NOW.
