Quilts in the Garden 9-11 April 2010 - Important News

MQ Exhibitions are sorry to advise that the Events Pavillion at Trentham collapsed recently after a heavy fall of snow. Trentham Estates are unable to be certain that they will be able to repair or replace the structure in time for the "Quilts in the Garden" exhibition, but the organisers have managed to relocate to Uttoxeter Racecourse and Conference Centre, Wood Lane, Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, ST14 8BD for the same dates shown above. This venue is a short drive from Trentham.
 
Margaret McQuillen has been fortunate in being able to secure the Conference Centre at such short notice, which boasts good facilities in a purpose built building, including quality catering and ample car parking.
