A Crafted Christmas is back at New Brewery Arts for the 2022 festive season. 

Taking place from Saturday 29 October until Saturday 24 December 2022, the sustainable Christmas shopping event brings 100 crafters and makers from all over the UK to Cirencester, where visitors can pick up handcrafted gifts, homewares and decorations. 

From sustainable glass and wooden Christmas tree decorations to thoughtful, handmade gifts designed to last a lifetime, Christmas shoppers can browse the eclectic range on offer at New Brewery Arts - right up until Christmas Eve.

As well as its usual opening hours from Monday to Saturday, New Brewery Arts is extending its hours to open from 10am until 4pm every Sunday during the festive season.

It's also hosting two special events as part of A Crafted Christmas, with 30-minute personal shopping experiences with the museum's curator and staff team available to book from 10am until 3.15pm on Sunday 27 November 2022, to mark Museum Shop Sunday; as well as Making Merry on Thursday 8 December from 5pm to 8pm, where there will be free drop-in craft sessions and festive treats available from Glaze Café, as well as late night shopping. 

New Brewery Arts is passionate about connecting the community with craft and helping people to live more sustainably, with the arts venue hoping that A Crafted Christmas will encourage people in Gloucestershire to buy less throwaway items and invest in handcrafted products made using sustainable materials this festive season.
