Culture Days events are free. Just a few of the 67 events for 2017 included activities as varied as a charity paddle art auction, a chance to write a problem on a pottery shard and watch a train smash it, a proper Victorian high tea with homemade scones, and many artists, musicians and culture-makers on Main Street and in their studios providing interactive content and hands-on activities.<\/p>\n<p>Culture Days 2018 is slated for Friday, September 28 through Sunday, September 30.
