Hindolveston Crafts in Action

Hindolveston is home to a talented group of people who demonstrate and sell their crafts. Saturday evening from 6.30pm to 9pm and Sunday from 10am to 4pm.

We hold 2 events each year - a demonstration day in August and a Christmas Craft Market in December. Our Christmas Craft Market, where everything on sale is made by the stallholder, is normally on the first weekend in December. But, sadly, not in 2020. We hope you will still find something hand crafted to love from the selection on our pages here.

If you enjoyed our Craft Day you'll like the Burnham Market Craft Market. It's on tomorrow, 15th August, from 9am to 5pm. Among the nearly 100 craft stalls spread across the village greens you will find our own crafters, Neil and Julie with their The Traditional Rope Company collection and Wendy of Wendow's Windows with her Tiffany glassware. It's a great event if you are a fan of genuine handmade crafts.

Another newcomer to our village will be joining us on Sunday. Richard Whymark paints in acrylic using texture and colour to bring his landscapes to life. He uses a palette knife, glue and many other materials to add layers to his paintings. His love of the Norfolk coastal marshes inspired much of his recent work.
