2012 Exhibition
|
|
The big day is drawing near and the organisers have been working
hard to ensure that everything is ready for the opening on 24th
June. Exhibitors and demonstrators from all over the UK, as well as
Belgium, France and Italy, have registered and their tables
booked, ready to receive the thousands of beautiful pieces of
magical parchment craft that will, once again, send us all into
raptures. The Parchment Craft Guild and the Association of Parchment
Crafters will be present to provide help and information to members
and those wishing to become members. The Parchment Craft Magazine
will also be present so it will be an opportunity for visitors to
subscribe and also browse and purchase back copies of the magazine.
Three craft shops will also be participating this year, all brimming
with mouth-watering parchment craft supplies. The usual cafeteria
will be there to supply the much needed cups of tea and coffee and
snacks to keep us going and there will be a seating area for
visitors to sit and catch their breath.
Two of our most known and loved parchment craft tutors will be
holding workshops - Linda Williams, Pergamano Master Tutor will run two-hour sessions on the
day in the exhibition centre - Ria Van Avondt, Pergamano Tutor from Belgium will run
a day long workshop at a venue nearby on Monday, 25th June. Places
are still available on both these courses so if you would like to
participate please download the forms (see below) and get them in
the post as soon as possible.

Would you like to demonstrate or exhibit
next year? |
|
Would you
like to demonstrate at the Bristol
Exhibition? Perhaps you would like to donate
an hour of your time to give a demonstrator
a break around lunch time, or get them a
well deserved and welcome drink.
Tables are supplied free of charge by the
organiser as well as lunch, including tea,
coffee and bottled water. Selling your own
designs is permitted but the organiser would
be very grateful for 10% of the takings to
go towards the cost of the lunches and
venue.
Accommodation for demonstrators can be
arranged, upon request.
Please download an application form
here. Just fill it in and either email
it or print it and pop it in the post.
