May Festival Event

Meet Sheila Joss, who will demonstrate and show samples of New Pitsligo's unique lacemaking tradition. Though machine-made lace led to the decline of commercial lace making in New Pitsligo, the tradition continues through the very active New Pitsligo Lace Club.This is a wonderful chance to learn about an intricate craft-making tradition from Aberdeenshire.
