Historic Life Weekends - Heritage Crafts at Risk


  • Country Child Ltd UK (map)

The award-winning Weald & Downland Living Museum have launched their new summer

programme packed full of family-friendly events and activities for all ages, from children’s

outdoor theatre to the popular Historic Life Weekend events.

One of the values of Weald & Downland Living Museum is preserving crafts and skills from

the past so we can still enjoy and learn from them today. This weekend will offer a special

opportunity to learn about historic crafts and get to see unique skills practised first-hand by

specialised craftspeople. Many of the crafts demonstrated over the event are listed in the

Heritage Craft Association’s Red List of Endangered Crafts.
