Trad Arts Team News, March 2025

The days are getting longer but there is still a chill in the air and a biting wind.  However, you are always sure of a warm and sociable welcome at the events below, either those we run ourselves or those run by our associates and friends.

For storytelling fans we are taking this chance to remind you that the February Storytelling Café is not until the 26th so you still have time to catch that.  Also great news is that the Kings Heath Art Market will re-launch on 15 March at a new venue, the All Saints Centre.
