A Festive Display In Home Hill

Arts on The Avenue in Home Hill is embracing the festive spirit, thanks to the creative contributions of members Marge and Fred Morcom. For years, the couple has decorated their home with a stunning array of handmade Christmas decorations, and this year, their work has found a new home with the group.
With the help of eight dedicated volunteers, a working bee was held to set up the decorations. Fred crafted all the timber pieces, while Marge created the fabric elements, showcasing their remarkable talents. Some of these decorations are available for purchase, giving visitors the chance to take home a piece of their artistry.
To celebrate, Arts on The Avenue is hosting an Open Day on 30th November, complete with a car boot sale for visitors to enjoy. The group will also have a stall at the Craft Spectacular, providing more opportunities to explore their creative offerings.
The Morcoms’ contribution highlights the vibrant community spirit within Arts on The Avenue, bringing people together to spread holiday cheer. Visitors are encouraged to stop by, admire the decorations, and perhaps find the perfect festive addition for their own homes.
This display is not only a testament to the Morcoms’ skills but also to the power of community collaboration, making the holiday season even brighter in Home Hill.
