Hay-on-Wye comes to Wirksworth

ByGed

I’ve just learned that Wirksworth is about to hold its own Hay-on-Wye book festival. They are calling it the Big Book Day and it is being held on Saturday, 8 April. It’ll be the culmination of a series of story and book events held across the town during the previous week.  It’s going to be a real celebration of stories and storytelling. So you will imagine I couldn’t resist taking a stall from 10am on Sat 8 April in the Memorial Hall. Do put the date in your diary. Hope to see you there.  Sue
