Winterfest Arts & Crafts Fair is an established event on the Thoresby calendar. Held in the unique Victorian Riding Hall at Thoresby Courtyard, it is designed to offer artists the opportunity to exhibit their talent & creativity and to give Christmas shoppers the experience of buying original handcrafted art they cannot find on the High Street. The Riding Hall provides an atmospheric location that is clean, dry and has easy access for loading & unloading.
