Christmas Wreath Making

Get festive with the Friends! Join us for our annual Christmas Wreath Making session on Saturday 7th of December.

You can choose to start at 10am or 11am.  It generally takes an hour or a bit longer, but stay as long as you like!

This popular event is back!  We will be based on the balcony of the Reading Cafe in Rowntree Park.  Grab and coffee and get creative!  There will be wreath frames made from willow for you to use and lots of natural decorations collected from York’s parks and open spaces for you to add – really make your door stand out this Christmas!

This event is most suited to adults and teens, but some children have found they have the concentration and skills, so they are most welcome.

It is ONLY £7.50 per wreath for non-members and £6 for those who are Friends of Rowntree Park members. 

Members are offered priority booking for all our events and have the opportunity to purchase tickets before they go on sale to the general public. If you’d like to purchase a ticket at members prices or find out about events first, you can join the Friends for just £5 a year.

Membership also gives you discount entry to events through the year, you also get 10% off in the cafe all year and monthly newsletters.  Best of all, you know your money is helping our volunteers maintain and improve the park for the community. The link for joining is below or you can pick up a leaflet in the cafe.

To buy your ticket, click on the links.  One ticket is needed for each wreath to be made.

Any questions, then do get in touch via membership@rowntreepark.org.uk

There is no physical ticket. Once you have paid via Paypal, you get a Paypal receipt and we get your names and the number of tickets you purchased.

Members discounts are available to members and their immediate household.  We are a small charity and we run events like these as we enjoy them but also want to raise money for our volunteer work in the park.  Your membership money is a big part of this.

In light of this, please can we ask you not to buy tickets for Non-Members at ‘members prices’.  We offer members discounts as a thank you to members and an incentive to others to join.

Tickets cannot be refunded unless the event is cancelled (full refunds would be given in this unlikely situation). If you can no longer attend, you are welcome to pass your ticket to another (let us know their name) or let us know ad we can try and sell your ticket for you.

We provide the materials, tools and wreath examples – but other than that it is down to you to create your masterpiece.  Our volunteers, Christine and Ruth will be on hand to help.
