This year's
festival theme is "Hands" - see below to see how you can try your hand
at many of the interactive events organised to showcase the theme! Festival

The idea of the festival is to pick three days when the "Cultural
Quarter" - the bit of Hanley that includes the Potteries Museum, the Regent
Theatre and Victoria Halls as well as Radio Stoke and many restaurants and clubs
- really flowers... and let people get involved.

from within North Staffordshire to produce a piece of artwork or other craft project,
which reflects their interpretation of the them - "Hands".
