Glassmaking demonstrations will run on both days, and adults and children can have a go themselves at various arts and crafts activities hosted by the cone’s creative tenants – for a small fee.
Stourbridge artist Luke Perry will also be providing street entertainment from midday to 3pm on the Saturday –and a performance by acoustic folk-rock-pop music band Journeyman will follow from 6pm to 8pm.

John Millar, Dudley’s director of the urban environment at Dudley Council, which runs the Red House Glass Cone, said: “The spring fair is always hugely popular and this year we’ve expanded the event to include music and dance on top of the ever popular arts and crafts. “It should prove to be a great day out for families and individuals alike.”
Admission to the spring craft fair is free.
