Meet The Maker: Paris Andrew and Ema Abolaffio FRIDAY 1 MAY
Meet The Maker Event: Paris Andrew and Ema Abolaffio
Stamford Strings
Friday 1 May
10.30am - 12.30pm
We welcome all interested people to this event. You do not have to be string player. An interest in instrument making, music or woodwork is enough!
All the way from Tuscany, Italy, makers Paris Andrew and Ema Abolaffio have a wealth of experience and knowledge to share, and we are also lucky to have their instruments for sale in the shop (a violin and viola).
This event starts with a Q and A session with the makers, which will be recorded and offered as a podcast afterwards (with edits). We invite you to submit your question beforehand (in the note section at checkout) or bring your question on the day.
Coffee and Italian biscuits will be served and you will have the chance to view the shop and chat to other participants.
After coffee, there will be a violin and viola demo by our very own Libby Summers and Rachel Spence.
Following this, participants are invited to view the violin and viola, ask further questions and have a try themselves.
If you wish to try the instruments out in a private appointment then you can book an afternoon appointment with the makers and Rachel after our lunch break from 1.45pm. Follow the link to our calendar to do this.
Numbers are limited to 16 so please book early to avoid disappointment!
