Councillor Marcus Hart, Cabinet Member for Communities at Worcestershire County Council said, “I’m really pleased that our libraries are hosting the Arts and Craft Roadshows and giving people across the county the opportunity to learn something new. There really is something for everyone!”

Councillor Marc Bayliss, Cabinet Member for Economy, Infrastructure and Skills, said, “Our Adult Learning do a fantastic job of helping our residents to update their skill set or get creative in a variety of ways, and this is another great example.”
