The exhibition consists of over 120 nativity sets from around the world. Some are large, others are extremely small and one or two are so tiny that they have been made for dolls’ houses! Each one is different, some feature teepees, others Llamas, some are made from paper or bamboo – but each tells the story of the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem over 2,000 years ago. This is an event not to be missed. Please come along and enjoy! The event is open to all and is free of charge; you can make a donation if you wish.Although most of the nativity sets are for viewing only we will have a children’s area where youngsters can colour pictures, nativity sets can be played with and fuzzy felt nativity scenes can be designed. Light refreshments will be available at a small charge.If you require any further information please phone 01480 830707 or email 23heatherc@gmail.com.
