A FREE art and craft fair is taking place in Oxford.

The event runs on Saturday and Sunday, April 14 and 15, at the Town Hall in St Aldate’s.

Local craft workers and artists will be exhibiting, although a few spaces for exhibitors remain. Tables cost £10 per day and, if the fair proves a success, organisers at the city council are keen to make it a regular event.

Town hall manager Lidia Pocock said: “We want to offer a stepping stone for upcoming artists and designer-makers to get their work noticed, and provide visitors with the opportunity to enjoy a new shopping experience and own affordable originals.”

Craft workers and artists already signed up include The event runs from 11am–4pm in the Long Room at the town hall. Entry is free. To book a table, email acunningham@oxford. gov.uk or call 01865 252162.
