Caru Dolgarrog
This is another chance to see what’s been happening in Dolgarrog over the last year or more. It’s an exhibition celebrating some of the recent festivals, talks, concerts and workshops that have happened around the village as well as asking the question as to what people would like to see more or less of? Feel free to join by using the post it notes and telling us what your thoughts. We’re all ears.

Felting workshop
Workshop at the Cog: Introduction to wet felting - come and make a piece of felt, with crafter-tutor Ros Bell, who has been creating felt items for around 7 years. Ros will supply materials and equipment, and guide you through the process, so that you'll have a piece of your own beautiful hand-made felt to take home. Costs £15, and will be limited in numbers, so please book early.
Making felt does involve physical activity, so that'll help us keep warm! If you have any questions, or just want to reserve your place, please message me or reply right here with a comment in this Event discussion thread. You can also book by popping into the shop when it's open (currently usually Thur-Sun, 12-4).
