Capstan's Bazaar - Southport
ON Easter Saturday, 4 April 2015, the
Atkinson, on Lord Street, Southport, played host to the Capstan's Bazaar, an
arts and craft market. This was the 2nd time the event has been held with in the
newly refurbished Atkinson and it appeared to go down well with both locals and
tourists alike, but most of those attending appeared to be from the local area.
On offer was a very interesting array of craft items, from photos and ink
drawings through to knitted pictures. Some of them where created by art students
who had just graduated. One of the students, who was still at University, told
us that she was in-between semesters, on her final year at University. She was
using the event and events like it to help fund herself and had made jewellery
pieces whilst she was completing her dissertation. It was not all art crafts as
the event has some very sweet local honey on offer. The stall holder explained
to us how it was produced within the Centre of Liverpool. Who would have thought
honey bees could produce amazing honey in a City Centre? To find out more about
