A Tudor Christmas at Hampton Court Palace

26th September, 2024

HCPBAC24 A TUDOR CHRISTMAS EXCLUSIVE CLASS AT HAMPTON COURT PALACE — FRIDAY 6 DECEMBER 2024.

We are incredibly excited to announce a very special Christmas class coming to Hampton Court Palace this December, inspired by the historic Bacton Altar Cloth, a Tudor textile believed to have belonged to Queen Elizabeth I.

Along with stitching a glorious mistletoe design inspired by the Altar Cloth, taught by RSN Tutor Helen Stevens and Sarah Smith, the day will include a guided tour of Hampton Court Palace in all of its festive glory, and a rare private view of the Bacton Altar Cloth itself.

Eleri Lynn, Fashion and Textile Historian, Curator and Author, will also give a talk sharing her journey of identifying this important historical piece. The day will include a festive lunch, coffees and pastries, and you will also be gifted a book to take home.

This promises to be an unforgettable day, so be sure to book soon as spaces are limited!
