The annual Crux Craft Fair in Rattery Village Hall.

Open 2-7pm on Friday and 10am – 5pm on Saturday and Sunday. Now in its 24th year and firmly established as the southwest’s premier craft fair, exhibitors are carefully selected makers from the South West. They make everything themselves and are happy to talk to you about their work. You will find different and original work at a range of prices.

Take time out in the CRUX café run by Sima and the Kitchen Table which will be open on the Friday evening for soup and homemade bread, hot drinks, mulled apple juice, mince pies and cakes and on Saturday and Sunday will be serving a selection of hot homemade vegetarian meals, soups, salads, and a delicious selection of cakes, teas and coffee.

This year’s CRUX charity is the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust which has worked at a field level for more than 40 years to protect and preserve all wildlife and habitats in Kenya, but is best known for the rescue, hand-rearing and rehabilitation of orphaned elephants. Makers donate a piece of their handmade work to the charity raffle, which draws at the end of the fair.
