Demonstrations & Artisan Presentations 

Get the most out of being amongst the makers for 3 days.
Watch  informative demonstrations and presentations from experts in their field; some might say a ‘masterclass’ in trades. 
All makers are sharing their knowledge and skills.
In 2025 there is a full 3 day program of Q&A presentations and interviews where artisans share what they do and what inspires them, on stage, in front of a seated audience.
The popular Spooncarving Championship Race is held on Sunday.
