MODEL-MAKERS behind Wallace and Gromit will be revealing some of their secrets during a weekend dedicated to making, music and merriment at Harewood House this July.
Aardman Animation will be attending the event - Make It Harewood - on July 6-7 as part of the Harewood Biennial.
It will take place in and around the Harewood courtyard featuring a full programme of workshops and demonstrations, DJs and live music, a craft market, plus local food and drinks.
Jane Marriott, Director, Harewood House Trust said: “We’re extremely excited to be launching a new festival here at Harewood, which continues our exploration around the subject of Craft and its role in society today.
“Make It Harewood will offer a new perspective to all our visitors, with after-hours bars and live DJ sets, in addition to a wealth of talented artists and performers. As a charity, we are dependent on our Members and visitors; this vibrant new approach offers a great new platform to engage with Harewood and celebrate our unique craft heritage and why it matters to society today.”
On Saturday July 6, the house and gardens will remain open until 9pm, with live DJs and evening entertainment and a pop-up bar.
