Christmas Craft Bonanza at Veveriet – a festive day for families with children!
A whole day dedicated to Christmas crafts and festive fun awaits at Veveriet! The run-up to Christmas is a favourite time of year, and this Saturday the entire venue will be transformed into a Christmas craft workshop.
Volunteers from Gjesdal Volunteer Centre will be on hand to assist at the various workshops. This year, Jærmuseet and Gjesdal Women's Association will also be taking part, each hosting their own creative activities.

All workshops are free of charge. However, to ensure enough gingerbread biscuits are available for everyone who wishes to decorate them, free tickets must be reserved via the website.
