Christmas Craft Fair | Minerva Arts Centre, Llanidloes
The ever-popular Christmas Craft Fair comes to the Minerva Arts Centre in Llanidloes, Mid Wales again for Christmas 2018!
Established over 16 years ago, the annual Christmas Craft Fair takes place until Monday 24 December, opening from 10am to 4.30pm Monday to Saturday. It closes at 1.30pm on Christmas Eve.
Around 40 craftspeople are selling their wares, all of whom are Mid Wales based, primarily from Llanidloes and the surrounding areas. The Christmas Craft Fair provides an outlet for local craftspeople to sell a variety of high quality goods at very affordable prices.
The Christmas Craft Fair is staffed by the craftspeople themselves on a rota basis, which gives visitors an opportunity to meet the producers, sometimes see them demonstrating their art, and to discuss personalised or specially commissioned pieces.
Three of the Knights of Sir Dancelot, a local Llanidloes ceilidh band, entertained visitors with traditional Christmas carols and tunes on Saturday 17 November. Graham Brand played anglo concertina, Peter Timmins played fiddle, and Cornelius Eger played guitar.

Little Town of Bethlehem
