CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!

We are so excited to be taking our portrait parlour to two Christmas markets this season. Our first outing will be at the I Love North Shields Vintage Market on Sunday 29th November. Then the following week we will be at the Cullercoats Creatives Christmas Market at the Cullercoats Crescent Club on Saturday 5th December.

What cannot expect? Well as with all Harriott & Solomon events you will have lots of fun and be laughing so much you will forget that you don’t actually like having your photo taken. Instead you will leave us after having had a really lovely and fun experience with your friends, family or team. Our set is a surprise, but think big - big wigs - big boxes - big everything! You will become the Christmas Gift, not just statically stand next to it!

Your choice of who you want to be, we’ll do all the rest including styling and posing. You will come away with a gorgeous colour printed photograph, and options to buy all the digital images and even your own set of Christmas cards!

This is going to be an epic set!! Time slots are limited so book yours in the link in our bio, maximum four people per photo.

Just a note on access, in both locations we will be on the main stage on the first floor. There is lift access up to the first floor, but there are steps upto the stage.

See you at Christmas!!! We will be the ones dressed in lametta!!! A throw back to the 1970s when tinsel ruled the house!

Really excited to share that Mark Harriott from SWAY in Whitley Bay is leading a beginners Macrame course in Whitley Bay at the Justine Holdsworth Studio North East on Whitley Road, on Thursday 4th June from 6-8:30pm. This friendly in-person workshop is perfect for beginners wanting to dive into the world of macrame.

The workshop will be a cosy, creative evening as an introduction to the art of knotting to create a colourful yarn hanging basket of your own design. Exterior or interior, multiple colours, double or single hanging baskets can be made, you decide! All materials will be provided and the 100% recycled cotton yarn is included in the price.

Mark Harriott ( BGFD-British Guild of Film Designers instructor) is a Cullercoats-based film, Ad & TV designer, so we are very happy to announce he will be at our Cullercoats Festival Craft Fair in St. George's Church Cullercoats Church Hall.

To make a reservation, please book via:

Join us in person to learn the basics of macrame and create your own choice of hanging basket!

The Cullercoats Festival will be showcasing a whole selection of different dancing, I'm not sure I dare Irish Dancing as my ankles aren't the strongest, but maybe one of the others?

Date for your diary: Saturday 13th June, we'll be at our Market situated in the St. George's Church Cullercoats Hall, which is just opposite the church [the really big iconic chuch on the seafront] and next door to the Cullercoats Lawn Tennis Club. There will be cake on offer too, provided by the lovely ladies at the Cullercoats Watch House. We can't wait!
