The Gift and Craft Fair has been held for over 20 years and raises essential funds for the Nature in Art Trust. Nature in Art are extremely passionate about supporting local artists and craftspeople, helping to highlight the array of crafts available and the creativity of the people in the local area. The event strives to have a large selection of stallholders showcasing a variety of crafts, from woodwork and ceramics,  glassware and photography to jewellery, textles, resin art, flower art and much more.

Abingdon Traditional Craft Fair is a modern-day tradition in the ancient Abbey Buildings, a three-day show which traces its roots back to the 1970s; that's 50 years of raising money for the upkeep of the medieval buildings in which it is held. They are the only remaining legacy from the once-famous Abbey dismantled by Henry VIII. The show is curated to safeguard its reputation for quality and genuine craftsmanship.
