“We want to create a fun and friendly event that will inspire the community to connect and come together” says Tara Saunders, Joint Artistic Director of Babbling Vagabonds Storytelling Theatre. “Forming a partnership with Buxton Heritage Experience means we have a wonderful venue and they have been the perfect hosts. Having other artists and people of the community volunteer their time is so important. These types of events just couldn’t happen without them.
