The first in a series of free craft fairs will be held in Berrow today (Saturday, 12th May).
Scores of locally made craftworks will be on display during the event at the Berrow Inn from 11am.
Around 40 stalls will be set up by local crafters and traders, offering a selection of handmade goods, woodcraft, craft items, confectionery and cakes.
Rob Spriggs, Manager of the Berrow Inn, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “There will be a wide range of different crafts and local products being sold. With over 40 different stalls, this will be one of the largest craft fairs in the Burnham-On-Sea area.”
“It will be a great family day out, with something for everyone. As well as the stalls, we will have local produce, local beers, live music, a new children’s play area and excellent food and a bar.”
He added: “Anyone who is coming from Burnham will be able to travel here for free as we will be running a shuttle service throughout the day from the BIARS Tourist Information Centre on the town’s seafront.”
The new craft fair is being opened by The National Trust, and Burnham’s new Mayor, Ken Smout, has also been invited along.
The event is free entry, but donations will be invited for local charities including BIARS. The stalls will remain open until at least 5pm and some may continue into the evening.
