Summer Beach at Taurus Crafts

Summer has arrived at Taurus Crafts in Sea-side style!
With a large sandy area we have made our own beach for the summer. Complemented by a giant seascape mural, our beach will provide fun filled opportunity to get the seaside feel – you can eat ice creams, make sand castles and see the Punch and Judy show, or the Emperor’s New Clothes.
In addition to the traditional fun of the beach, sandcastle building, beach games and too much ice cream we have some great beach themed activities. Make mermaid and sea monster puppets; family workshops to make kites, mini wind beach buggys and windchimes; drop-in sessions to knit a sea creature. Not to be outdone Carrie of Cats Eye Carving is offering tasters in Stonemasonary and our chocolatiers want to tempt you with the opportunity to a make a chocolate that does not taste of the sea
Its beach party night on Friday 2nd August. With music from ‘Beyond the Blue’, activities, games, food and drink we are set for a good summer evening of entertainment. £2.00 per person or £5.00 for a family of four the party, starts at 6pm and finishes at 9pm.
Join us on Saturday 10th August for an extra special food market and barbecue. All our regular fantastic local food and drink suppliers will be selling their wares and we will be putting on a classic beach BBQ. Running from 11am until 4pm, free entry.
