Artisans on the Beach
When? 13 Dec 2019 to 15 Dec 2019
Where? Swanage
Set on Swanage seafront over the Christmas season, the beach-huts are taken over by local crafters and tradespeople all looking to sell the ideal creative gifts for you and your loved ones.
From collages, photography and paintings, to vintage and retro cushions, coasters and felt goods, there's no shortage of items on offer. So come on down and see what you can find, located within the beach-huts on Swanage Shore Road beside the Tourist Information Centre right up to the clock tower.
Swanage Town Council will be providing free parking in its Broad Road (above the Pier) and Main Beach (off Victoria Avenue) long stay car parks on all the Saturdays in December and the first Saturday in January. On the other days in December, parking will be £1 per day in these two car parks.
Artisans on the Beach on Fridays to Sundays 10.30-16.00
