Knowle's first Artisan Market hailed a success

The sun was shining, and everyone was smiling for the first Artisan Market in Knowle recently. Situated on the service road on Station Road (outside David Aitchison & Knowle Fish Bar), there were stalls with gifts, crafts, food and drink from traders from Knowle, Warwickshire and the Midlands.

The event was enjoyed by visitors and traders alike, and it was said there was a lovely atmosphere throughout the day.

Visit Knowle organised the Artisan Market as part of their support for Knowle and its businesses. Volunteer directors Dave Pinwell and Sue Thompson said they both enjoyed speaking to lots of people about the work of Visit Knowle and getting feedback on what else people would like to see in the village.

Dave Pinwell said: "We'd like to thank everyone who came out in the heat to support our village and create such a tremendous buzz in Station Road. We had lots of positive conversations on the day with calls for more market events in the future."

Sue Thompson said: "It was lovely to see so many familiar faces and meet new people. If you would like to see more events in Knowle, or if you have any other ideas for improvements to the village, you can contact Visit Knowle via [email protected].
