SPAB Scotland will once again be hosting craft demonstrations as part of Edinburgh Doors Open Day weekend. Come and speak to us, find out about what we do for building conservation, campaigining, and events in Scotland.

Our demonstrastion this year will focus on stonecarving, and we are lucky to have two SPAB William Morris Craft Fellows, Heather Griffith and Innes Drummond on hand to guide you through the skills of a stonemason.   They will be giving short demonstrations throughout the day, and will oversee a small hands-on area where you can have a go yourself.  

More information can be found about Doors Open Day on the Cockburn Association website

The event is completely FREE and open to all. Places to try stone carving will be on a strictly 'first come first served basis' throughout the day.
