Fringe Workshops

For all you crafty types!

Meet the Maker Jewellery Workshop

Increasingly people are getting more hands on with their fashion and styling. So get involved, gather up those bits of jewellery you no longer wear but cannot bear to throw away, bring them down to Louth Craftmark on Saturday, 30th April anytime between 11am - 4pm and we will help you restyle and revamp your jewellery and accessories. The makers present on the day will be Cathy Dodrill, Edward Cook, Mary Brennan and Fiona Thornton. There will be 10% off on the day (if you say the word 'Fringe') and a raffle for anyone who makes a purchase. The prize for the raffle is a €50 voucher for Louth Craftmark! There will be a children's area so that mums can bring along the little ones and let them get crafty too!

Venue: Louth Craftmark, Highlanes Gallery, Laurence Street | Date: Sat, 30th April | Time: 11.00am to 4.00pm
