The beautiful HLSI was founded in 1839 when it was set up as creative and social centre, promoting literature, the arts and science through the provision of a gallery space, members room and a library. Today the HLSI, a registered charity operates in a similar way and is generally closed to the public. The fair offers visitors an opportunity not just to see one of the best maker fairs in town, but also to visit the historic building.

This year the Winter Fair will feature up to 30 brilliant makers. As ever we have plants, shrubs and flowers on the outside of the building, a book sale in the historic library and wonderful home made cakes, savouries and condiments.

Entrance is free and everyone is always welcome.
