Basketry NSW will again be part of the Bathurst Heritage Trades Trail.  This is an award-winning annual event which will be held at the heritage Bathurst Showground on 11-12 April 2026.  The 2025 event attracted over 3,000 visitors who came to enjoy traditional crafts and trades, and Basketry NSW provided a very popular interactive stall. Please consider coming along and being a part of a great weekend - your assistance would be appreciated! Email us for more details basketrynsw@gmail.com

At our Friday meeting in March, we will be preparing some frames for mini melon baskets to use in April at the Trades Trail. Last year we couldn’t keep up with demand, so if you can’t make it to Bathurst, please come along and help us prepare.
