IT’S not long now until the fifth annual Frome Window Wanderland, which is being held this year from Friday 4th to Monday 7th March, 5.30pm to 9pm each evening.
Organisers say, “After a difficult year of holding events in 2021, hopefully we will be able to get back to a more normal Wanderland experience this year and we are hoping people will embrace the opportunity to get involved!
“Frome Window Wanderland is a fun community event where anyone can make a display in their own window and light it up for others to wander around and enjoy. The event follows the February half-term break and we are holding several workshops at Black Swan Arts in the run-up to the event, giving adults and children the opportunity to create window decorations to take home to display as well as join together to create a Community Window at the Black Swan Arts Centre for Frome Window Wanderland 2022. Keep an eye on social media for further details.
“If you are stuck for inspiration for your window display, Frome Window Wanderland has linked with The Good Heart cafe this year as part of their ‘Frome Kindness Festival’ (1st-6th March) and so are suggesting if you need a spark of inspiration that ‘Kindness’ could be the key?
“Making a display can be as simple as hanging your favourite piece of clothing in it, placing your favourite book in the window, or maybe a front room disco or performance, it is completely up to you. Or you could lend your window to someone else who wants to make a display…?
“Just remember to sign up and register your address as taking part by going to the Frome Window
Wanderland webpage www.windowwanderland.com/event/frome-2022 and also remember to light up those displays on the 4th – 7th March! There will be downloadable maps of different areas of Frome this year, so you can plan your route and go for a wander in your neighbourhood.
