Christmas Craft Fair – and therapies – at Kilmartin Museum this weekend

Posted on by

Kilmartin Museum is hosting its Christmas Craft Fair this weekend – 6th and 7th December 2008 from 11.00am – 4.00pm daily.

On display and for sale will be homemade cards, soaps, wreaths, felt gifts, bric a brac, wood crafts, jewellery, knitted goods, gifts from recycled and vintage fabrics, among many others.

The Museum’s Fair also offers an opportunity to get away from the usual shopping frenzy, with its cafe’s tempting menu, mulled wine, mince pies, Loch Fyne marmalade and Kilmartin mincemeat. Seasonal or what?

The unusual element in this Fair at Kimartin is that it is offering sessions in a range of therapies, some on Saturday, some on Sunday, some on both days:

  • Aromatherapy – Sunday
  • Colourpuncture – Sunday
  • Emmett Technique – Sunday
  • Kinesiology – Saturday and Sunday
  • Polarity – Saturday
  • Reiki – Saturday and Sunday

In each case fees are £5 for 15 minutes and £10 for £30 minutes. Sessions can be booked through the Museum at 01546 510 278.

All these sessions are provided through Solas Health and Well Being Group. For more details on Solas, membership and direct contacts for practitioners, phone Carol at: 01880 821158
