Simon Williamson from the Festival said:
“We are delighted to have secured this very special guest for our dinner. John is a very amusing and knowledgeable speaker and this is a unique local opportunity for guests to bring along that family heirloom that intrigues them”
Broadway Arts Festival was held for the first time in 2010 and was a resounding success. The second festival will take place from 9th – 17th June 2012.
The 2012 Festival programme will be announced later this month.
