Farnborough Craft Guild
"The Friendly Craft Guid"

ABOUT US · EVENTS · JOIN US · CONTACT US


The Guild holds craft events during the year at various locations.

We only include hand crafted individual designs, made by our members, so we can insure the high quality of the items.

Often entry to our shows is free or we may charge a small fee. Our main aim is to promote the interest in crafts and the skills involved.

All our members are able to tell you how they make any item or they may be demonstrating on the day.

Reports on last dates of 2007

Saturday November 17th Christmas Craft Show Southwood Community Centre, Farnborough.

The show was very well supported. The hall looked very attractive and had a feel of Christmas cheer. Visitors were encouraged to try different crafts and quizzed the crafters on how they make their work.

We look forward to making this an annual event. The NEW BREEZE BLOCK SCULPTURES were very popular.

Saturday December 1st Christmas Craft Show Heatherside Community Centre

We had less visitors at this show because there were many events in the area - school fairs & charity events.

We still had many satisfied customers going away with a unique Christmas gift.
