Demijohn's Big Spring Weekend

Join us for our Big Spring Weekend at Glenlair Steading starting at 10am on Sat 25th May. This FREE event is a celebration of fine art, food and drink, as part of our local Spring Fling Open Studios Event.

Along with tastings at Demijohn, the liquid deli and tapas-style street food, we will have two artists exhibiting their work. This is going to be fun!

When will be held?
Our May Bank Holiday event will run daily between 10am to 5.30pm from Sat 25th to Mon 27th May, with a special late evening opening until 8pm on Saturday 25th May.

What can you expect?
Visitors will be able to enjoy unique works of art exhibited by both Sally Jennings, a Glasgow based painter, print maker and installation artist and Marilyn Crawford, an award winning Dumfriesshire based sculptor and artist.

Sally Jennings will be demonstrating her methods of painting, drawing and printmaking over the weekend.

Our new Demijohn store within Glenlair Steading will also be open daily from 10am to 5.30pm daily for free tastings of our unique range of handmade, sustainable food and drink.
