Marton Museum of Country Bygones
A museum of local rural artefacts developed from the collection made over many decades by George Tims, a village resident, who died in January 2005.
Princethorpe College
Founded in 1833, St Mary's Priory was one of the first priories to be built in England after the Reformation. Join us for a tour to discover some of the fascinating everyday histories of those who lived and worked here.
Sheep to Shawl challenge (Art at the Alex)
Fibre artists (spinners, weavers, knitters and crocheters) will combine forces across four days to transform woollen fleeces into fabrics, starting with sheep and ending in wearable shawl(s). From preparation to finishing will be demonstrated.
St Maries RC Church, Rugby
We will have a number of volunteer run stalls appropriate to the theme. We will have all areas of the church open with personnel on hand to assist with information and help.
Tudors and Textiles
At this quirky art centre in Rugby town, textile artist and tudor re-enactor Tamsen Flack, will be joined by friends in tudor dress, and they will demonstrate textile crafts, prepare Tudor food and (Sunday only) entertain with some tudor music.
