Come and see our extra special activities on Sunday 18 September!
The Purbeck Artisan Yard is very proud to be a very eco-conscious group of artists. From the materials used, the plant based inks, the recycled fabrics, paper and card, leather and fabrics saved from landfill, and biodegradable/compostable packaging as well as a vast array of upcycled products. Pop in to see the fantastic array of products, chat to the artists and enjoy the demonstrations we are running!
