For All the Saints: a Flower Festival
Saturday 26 July 2008 to Sunday 27 July 2008
Flower Festival being held at the St Mary Magdalen's Chapel, Ripon, (The Leper Chapel),
Ripon Flower Club has been preparing the themes, based around the Saints with links to Ripon.
Each display is being based around the name of a saint, e.g. St Peter, St Mary Magdalen, St Cuthbert, St Wilfrid, St Willibrord, St John the Baptist.
Visitors will be greeted, for example, by St Wilfrid accompanied by a life-sized floral horse at the entrance to the chapel
The Flower Festival is open on Saturday 26th July from 10 .00 to 4.30 pm and Sunday 27th July from 11.30 to 4.00 pm. Programmes are £1.50 and refreshments will be available.
The twelfth century, Grade 1 Listed, Leper Chapel itself is well worth a visit and Ripon Flower Club, who were responsible for the amazing Flower Festival at Ripon Cathedral last year, will again be displaying their talents.
