Carshalton Arts Weekend 2008

The annual Carshalton Arts Weekend brought together a huge number of people of all ages to participate in a wide range of activities, and to view the exhibitions at Honeywood Museum.

From the visitor's Book - "Thank you, it was really enjoyable. My children had a go at a dozen things and really liked the shadow puppets. This festival and the Centre (Museum) add so much to the town." Click HERE to read further comments
