Crafty Christmas at Fradley

Christmas Illumination, Canal City HakataImage by yuichi.sakuraba via FlickrWe want to say thanks to everyone who came, helped out, created, sang and enjoyed the Crafty Christmas event at Fradley Junction today, as well as a massive thanks to British Waterways and Alrewas Arts Festival for helping to make it happen.

We will be uploading photos from the event, as well as worksheets to remind you of how to make those irresistable little sleeping mice and the funky paper lanterns, in the next few days, so remember to check back later to see those!

We would also like to take the opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas, and a great New Year! We've got some big plans for next year, including the imminent launch of our brand spanking new website, as well as some cracking new projects and events, both in and out of schools--we're very excited!

What is going on?!

Why are the Big Art people creeping through the dark streets of Alrewas, armed with a lantern and a stepladder?

Surely they must be up to no good.

Oh no, they're just bringing a bit of festive cheer to a local landmark!

Check out the Alrewas Arts Festival's giant willow sculpture (created by young people from the village) by Bagnall Lock.
