(Malcolm Christian, CEO
of Caversham Centre)
Who can believe there are only two months left before
Christmas? Be prepared - make your way along the winding road to Caversham, Santa's
Textiles Wonderland in the Midlands.
To quote Caversham’s website: “Rising out of the Caversham
legacy, Caversham Centre for Artists and Writers (CCAW) continues a more than
25 year-long tradition of excellence, innovation and commitment to those from
disadvantaged backgrounds, to transformation and empowerment through creativity
and the Arts. Since the establishment of the Centre was made possible by a WK
Kellogg Foundation grant, the potential for legacy and succession-building has
been addressed. Beginning with orthodox models that continued to use
printmaking and the fine arts as vehicles for self-expression, programmes were
initiated that developed inspirational leadership. These programmes used creativity
and the arts that had resonance in communities and areas beyond those
traditionally associated with the exclusivity of the fine arts.’
Caversham offers stunning products that make perfect
presents for everyone. For the first time they have smaller pieces of fabric
for sale at a giveaway price for a beautiful handprinted fabrics. There are also
end-of-roll pieces at a discounted price as is an extensive range of fabrics on
the roll that available to purchase by the meter.
It is Christmas, and it wouldn't be that festive time of
year without some Christmas decorations? Crimson Laser once again have a
selection of decorations to buy or order.
Have a wander around the studio and the vibrant, yet
peaceful garden and recharge your soul before the chaos of the festive season.
