Tracey, in 2020. This year, the nation will commemorate Victory in Europe’s 75th Anniversary. Craft Festival will be honouring this by embracing the 1940’s on Saturday 13th June through fashion and music. Dress up in your favourite 1940s’ style and listen to great music from the era. The very special Out of the Woods, curated by
Internationally respected basket maker, Hilary Burns, hosts a range of makers working with native woodlands including spoon carving, basket making, steam bending and ash pounding. Don’t miss out on Craft Festivals bookable and
drop-in workshops. According to a recent BBC Arts Great British Creativity Test survey of almost 50,000 people, three quarters of respondents said creativity could help block out stress and anxiety, with almost a quarter naming some kind of making or craft practice as their favourite activity. Craft Festival
Bovey Tracey is the ideal opportunity to try a new craft and give yourself time to make, reflect and relax. For younger visitors, The Den returns with a
programme packed for the Young Adults and the VERY important children's craft tent, The Craft Lab, an area where families can come together to enjoy free craft activities, along with street theatre, play area and puppet shows. We look forward to welcoming you to The Craft
Festival 2020, one of Europe’s most vibrant and friendliest festivals.
