Dry Stone Walling Course
Tuesday 29th and Wednesday 30th September
£50 (£45 Members)
We're looking forward to holding our first event since we re-opening at the start of July! Don't miss our dry stone walling course, which will take place over two days in September. Places are limited to ensure social distancing, so, if you're interested, book your place soon to avoid missing out!
We’d like to thank all our new and returning customers for your continued support of Dronfield Hall Barn recently. As part of the government’s ‘Eat Out To Help Out’ scheme, it has been a particularly busy time for us. After a tough few months, this has been a real boost to us, and has helped us get back to a sense of normality.
But we’re not quite out of the woods just yet – your support remains vital to us in the coming months, as we try and re-establish our income sources.
All but one of our libraries will be open and operating their normal opening hours by the end of the month.
Visitors are to be welcomed back to Buxton Museum and Art Gallery from this week following the introduction of new safety measures to stop the spread of coronavirus.
As part of this year’s Derby Feste, members of the public are invited to submit lines of text summing up their experiences of Lockdown to be included in a new poem called ‘The Derby Witness’.
The poem, comprising of 49 lines (one for each day of lockdown before restrictions were eased) will be written across the city of Derby for Feste weekend on the 26th and 27th September.
To submit your line of text email imgenrefluid@gmail.com
