All interested in displaying their work, having exhibitions or teaching in our 3 teaching rooms are welcome to see the building.
Our official date of opening has not been set.
JEWELLERY SUPPLIERS
I have made a list of suppliers on the blog www.irishcraftupdate.com that I would recommend. If there are any more you would like to pass on to others please feel free to email me at Karen.noticebaord@gmail.com
If you would like to be part of a list of suppliers please email me your details and I can add you immediately.
CHRISTMAS FAIRS
I have a list of fairs on the blog and I would recommend that you add all the fairs that you are selling at. Coming closer to Christmas the amount of people visiting the site doubles and I can safely say it is people looking for fairs to visit since I get phone calls about wheel chair access, whether the fair is on because it is such bad weather and if they have the lady that was there last year with the ceramic bowls in the blue colour will be there this year because a plate was broken by their son!!!
I hear it all….but I would definitely say the site is used to find fairs for customers, so mention what you are selling and I can add you to the site. Times of the fair are always good too, and a little direction or address would be great.
