Britain's What's On Event Guide
Sussex Guild Contemporary Craft Show at Midhurst Rother College
At this year’s Sussex Guild show in Midhurst, you’ll find a colourful feast of creativity to brighten the dark days of winter and provide inspiration for unique and personal seasonal gifts.
In the airy communal spaces of the comfortably appointed Midhurst Rother College you’ll find fifty-five designers exhibiting a wide range of contemporary crafts. Discover exciting batik, ceramics, furniture, glass, jewellery, knitwear, leatherwork, patchwork, pewter, printmaking, silversmithing, textiles, textile art and woodwork on display and for sale.
Take the opportunity to talk to the best contemporary craft makers working today throughout East and West Sussex, and adjoining counties. You’ll be able to buy beautifully designed and superbly hand-made works over the weekend, or take the opportunity to commission bespoke items from independent makers.
Tickets allow re-admission throughout the weekend, so there’s time to ponder that extra special purchase or commission whilst sampling the more substantial fare to be found in the cafés, hotels and pubs in the delightful medieval town of Midhurst, where the Guild has been showing for over two decades.
With free parking and a café serving light refreshments, this fixture in the West Sussex winter calendar makes seasonal gift shopping as relaxed as possible and as popular as ever. Buying from independent British makers is the perfect antidote to the frenzy of Black Friday.
