ARTISTS, craftsmen and performers showcased their talent at this summer’s Creative Fair.

At the event on Saturday, August 6, Theydon Bois Village hall was filled with stalls selling everything from handmade candles to prints and paintings.

The air was filled with aromas from the food stalls.

There were also a series of performances and displays by local martial arts clubs as well as entertainment for children, including painting classes and a bouncy castle.

Visitors unwound in the Relaxation Room with Indian head massage, reflexology and reiki.

The Creative Fair is held three times a year, in spring, summer and winter.

Show organiser Lynn Abery said: “The show was a great fun. In future fairs we will be looking to promote young creative talent with a ‘young talent’ section. We are also looking to hold an Olympics based event for London 2012.”
