Apologies for those of you who have been sitting waiting for this blog post since breakfast. Usually our weekly blog post is published first thing on a Wednesday morning. Unfortunately things are a little topsy turvy at Old Bolsover Yard at the moment so please bear with us. We are open as usual Monday - Saturday 10am - 3pm but a few of the behind the scenes activities are being affected - normal services will be resumed in due course. In the meantime enjoy your Wednesday evening blog post for this week.........
Owl be back
Saturday morning saw the arrival of Ian Stacey and his Birds of Prey to Old Bolsover Yard. It was a lovely day and thank you to those who came and spent some time with us. There were plenty of decorated owls as part of the Children's Activity for the weekend, who I hope are now enjoying their new homes. If you missed this event Ian will be back with us for another Courtyard Saturday on 3rd August.

Great Gifts for Dad
Don't forget that Sunday 16th June is Father's Day. It can often be difficult to think of great gift ideas so let us help you at Old Bolsover Yard. The Gallery has lots of unique and quirky items just perfect to tell him what you think. From the memories you've made together to the life skills he's taught you don't forget to say Thank You for all the things that have been made possible because of Dad.
What's On at Old Bolsover Yard
Being a Craft Courtyard we look to showcase all sorts of traditional crafts, but in addition we are also managing to squeeze in some musical interludes and support for a number of local community groups. There's lots still to come throughout June:
Saturday 15th June - Bolsover Art Group
Oils, pastels, gauche, watercolours, will all be demonstrated by our local painting group. With paintings for sale too, make sure you measure that space on the wall before you come!
Saturday 22nd June - Bolsover WI
Proving that they are not just about 'Jam & Jerusalem', our very own WI will take over the Yard and showcase what they are really about.
Saturday 29th June - Bolsover Inner Wheel
Another showcase weekend to find out what Bolsover Inner Wheel is about. Rumours are they are also hoping to sell jams, chutneys & cakes!
Throughout these events which all run from 10am - 3pm the other units at Old Bolsover Yard will be open with a warm welcome for all.
Work is still progressing on further improvements to the site so another big thank you to all the tradesmen who are helping out with this project.
Until next week............
