Heather Bartsch from Barossa Quilt and Craft Cottage has just dropped off some great fabric for a donation and a box of beautiful Barossa Vintage Festival programs. Although most of the events take place in the week preceeding our Retreat and on the weekend of the Retreat, I know that some of you will be here earlier and looking for things to do. Some of the DHs may like the drive up to the Barossa while you are enjoying the weekend at Glenelg. If anyone would like a program sent to them, please let me know.
Art and Craft events include:
A Gallery of Quilts - Sat 11th to Sun 19th - Barossa Quilt and Craft Cottage between Angaston and Nuriootpa. This includes a Christmas display by Judy Butcher. If anyone is interested, Heather may extend this until the Monday.
Vine Patch Quilters Vintage Exhibition - Monday 13th to Saturday 18th - Angaston
Angaston Garden Quilters - Mon 13th - Sun 19th
Embroidery Exhibition - Mon 13th t0 Sat 18th - Tanunda.
There are also many other Art, Floral Art, Craft and Photographic exhibitions.
The wineries are open and many are putting on displays and events and each Barossa Town is having a Town Day of fun and festivity. Food events include Barossa Brunch, Poets and Platters, Lunch with the Whistler family, Breakfast at Bethany, The Winemakers table and too many more to mention here. There are concerts and heritage tours and street parades. Well worth arriving a few days before the Retreat.
If you are interested, please contact me and I can post you out a brochure. Email me at lizneedl@adam.com.au
Festival website is www.barossavintagefestival.com.au
