A reminder about Modern Makers Collective Yattendon Winter Market this weekend - the village hall will be filled with seriously beautiful crafts carefully crafted. Do brave the weather and go to Yattendon Village Hall, RG18 0UE on both Saturday and Sunday, 10am till 4pm. Read more about it: CRAFT shows are as varied as their exhibitors and, as a former advisor for the Arts Council back in the day, I’m pretty picky, says Arts Editor TRISH LEE It gives me so much pleasure to visit shows by quality makers like the Modern Makers Collective, who are returning with another Yattendon Winter Market.
They are celebrating Slow Craftsmanship on the weekend of November 23 and 24, between 10am and 4pm. Modern Makers Collective is a curated group of skilled makers, designers, artists and craftspeople, committed to promoting high-quality craftsmanship, sustainability and community engagement through the annual Winter Market and programme of workshops in the local area. One of the organising artists, co-founder of Modern Makers Collective, Aimée Payton says: “The picturesque estate village of Yattendon is the perfect setting for the Winter Market, with its award-winning pubs and beautiful scenery, providing visitors with a lovely opportunity to enjoy a day of shopping and delicious food.
“Whether you’re looking for the perfect gift or a special treat for yourself, you’ll find a diverse and vibrant selection of handmade treasures to choose from, including jewellery, ceramics, text.
