Community Arts Day

A whole series of free summer events, in and around Burbage Community Library, today!  If you visited our popular Willow, woodcarving and Ukuladies demonstration last year, come and see what we have for you this time...

KW Glass

“Never stop thinking of life as an adventure.”

“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.” Henry Ford

So, 2020, Covid Lockdown, special holiday to celebrate my 70th cancelled, I bought a glass fusing kiln!

Five years later, I’ve learned, through reading and searching the internet, enough about the alchemy of glass to be able and confident enough to produce glass art that you can see at BCAF’s Community Day at Burbage Library

What an adventure!

Come along and enjoy seeing some of the techniques demonstrated.

King Palace Steel Band

Sounds of the Caribbean...

King Palace Steel Band is a professional steel drum band with an authentic repertoire, providing a sweet mix of calypso, reggae and island music.

Be transported to a tropical paradise with the chilled and beautiful sounds of summer.

Guaranteed to get everyone moving to the beat with their great music.

Children's Craft Activities in the Library

Come & enjoy our summer crafts activities. Shell Painting, Clay Bead Bracelets, Suncatchers.

Help to create our BCAF Flower Mandala with Pierce Perspective.

The Library will be offering Tea and Cakes for sale throughout the day, with an added special - "Dreamy Cow" Icecream.

When you're done, why not pop over to the Congregational Church to view the Hinckley and District Society of Arts, Arts & Craft Fair with more artists at work, and grab (another) cup of tea?

This event is suitable for adults, families and accompanied children.
