I started organising Thrigby Autumn Arts Festival in the grounds of Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens in 2017. This 2-day event showcases artists, designer-makers and craftspeople from all over our region, giving them the chance to demonstrate their considerable skills, sell their work, and it provides opportunities for visitors to try their hands at all sorts of different arts and crafts. We have printmaking, pottery, wood carving, loom weaving, spinning, felting, leather working, willow weaving and painting available for children and adults to enjoy throughout the weekend.

We are back again in 2025 with more great artists and makers so keep the weekend of September 6th and 7th free. I will keep you posted via the festival pages on Facebook and Instagram (follow us on @autumnartsfestival) or you can email me: clare@waysidepottery.co.uk if you want more details.
