"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it" Proverb 22:6
Alongside the grown up stuff they will have family events and happenings throughout the two days, including music, poetry, art, performances, a food market and the regular monthly St Leonards market.
Of special interest to you might be the events they are running for children:
· Promenade performance of Midsummer Night’s Dream in St Leonard’s Gardens
· Picture Hunt – with something to take home
· Ragged Trousers competition (with prizes)
· Puppetry performances throughout the two days
· Street Circus
On Sunday afternoon they will be having an interactive and boisterous reading of Lewis Carroll’s Hunting of the Snark, complete with prizes, aimed at children from 6 years upwards. (Carroll’s aunts lived in Hastings and he was a regular visitor).
They guarantee a fun weekend for all, regardless of the weather!
