Pop into this historic gem in the town centre and enjoy a guided tour of parts of the building not always open to the public. There will be history re-enactments, bringing to life the heritage of Northampton’s rich and varied history. The Moulton Morris Men will be performing and there will also be a chance to meet Northampton’s Mayor, Councillor Stephen Hibbert.
Vintage Clothing Week - Grab a bag and find unique vintage pieces. Join us for an exciting celebration of sustainability and style during Vintage Week at Grandbies! We're rolling out the red carpet for all vintage enthusiasts and eco-conscious fashionistas alike. From the moment you step into our doors, you'll be immersed in a treasure trove of unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that span the decades. But that's not all – this year, we're putting the planet first by dedicating a whole day to Recycle Week, where you can discover upcycled and repurposed gems. Plus, don't miss your chance to snag a specially designed reusable shopping bag for just £10, as part of our commitment to reducing waste. Come explore the world of sustainable fashion, breathe new life into pre-loved items, and celebrate a more eco-friendly approach to style at Grandbies Vintage Week!
We aim to bring people together to read, share stories and have fun. We use reading – whether books, magazines, newspapers, or anything else – to start everyone chatting. Our Reading Friends group meets on the 3rd Wednesday every month at Northampton Central Library to talk about reading and anything else that interests them. You don’t have to read anything before the session and everyone is welcome so come along, meet new people and share stories together. No booking is required and you don’t have to be a library member to take part.
