Wood Craft Weekend

Toy-makers, wood-turners and lovespoon-carvers are taking over the Great Glasshouse for a weekend of demonstrations and displays at the National Botanic Garden of Wales.

The Garden’s Wood Craft Weekend takes place on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 January – and admission is free.

Organiser (and exhibitor) Les Bryan said there will be lots to interest visitors.

It is a real treat to see carvers and turners in action. We have prestigious organisations like the British Woodcarvers’ Association and Tycroes Woodturning Club as well as some of South Wales’s best practitioners such as Swansea’s Tony Martin and his lovespoons; Mike Prankerd, from the Gower; and toy-maker John Allen.

The event, which all takes place under cover in Lord Foster’s stunning Great Glasshouse, is open from 10am-4pm both days.
