Following the huge success of the Maltings Festival in 2006 and 2007, we’re doing it again – but this year it will be bigger and better!
‘Farnham creates… a community arts festival’ will bring together the resources of four of the key cultural providers in Farnham: Farnham Maltings, Crafts Study Centre, New Ashgate Gallery and University College for the Creative Arts for a month long celebration of arts and the Farnham community.
Throughout May the group will deliver a wide ranging programme of community exhibitions, workshops, talks, film, etc. The aim is to develop new audiences and venues whilst building on the strong sense of community within the town.
On 10 May Farnham Maltings and Farnham Town Council kick off the celebrations with a one-day festival celebration. Activities will take place in every space of the Maltings’
building from the Great Hall to the car park – and will extend into the town centre
along Downing Street.
Come and enjoy a day of festivities: expect food and drink, live music,
theatre and dance, children’s workshops, face-painting, fireworks,
comedy, a barn dance and much more. This will be a real treat
for everyone in our community and a great way of exploring
the Maltings – all for only £1. The festival will start at 11am
and finish with a grand firework finale at 10:30pm. In addition
there will be a craft market, jazz band and performances
along Downing Street from 10am–4pm.
