Craft Room Hire and Facilities
Our craft rooms are available to hire for parties, events and meetings at very reasonable rates with reduced rates for charity or community groups. Contact us here for more information.
Our craft rooms at the Alford Craft Market Centre began as three rooms at the rear of our shop that were derelict. We applied for a grant from the Big Lottery Fund and were successful - receiving a grant to provide a unique and much needed opportunity for our local craftsmen to pass on their skills to a younger generation, particularly as Alford is so well known for its historic connection with crafts.
The three rooms became two rooms and a courtyard - great spaces with lots of natural light.
The Bakehouse is our third classroom which opened 29th October, 2016 where we have adult and children's classes in glass fusing, mosaics, jewellery & stained glass.
