Autumn Fete at St Anne’s House

On 30th October the doors opened to St Anne’s House for a free public house-warming event. Autumn Fete was an event to bring people together and invite them into the new community and creative hub.
“St Anne’s House is a space that is open to all to come together – This Autumn fete is an invitation to communities, especially of St Anne’s, to come and see what we are up to and for them to get involved.” – Jack Gibbon, Bricks Director
