We want to thank all of you for making our time at the Ancient House the most pleasurable, worthwhile, fun and enjoyable ever:

🎨 All of our artists and makers - you are just the best bunch of people it's been our pleasure to work with - here's to working with you again before too long
🍴 All of our food and drink sellers - thanks to you everyone's arrived with empty bellies and left with full bellies and smiley faces
🛍️ And thanks to all of you that have visited, shopped and supported all of us on our incredible mission this last year - we've loved meeting every single one of you: we've chatted, we've ranted, we've celebrated and we've listened a lot to what you've all had to say. And we've proved our concept time after time after time...
.. this is NOT the end. Although we have no plans for further pop-ups, we certainly still have plans to breathe life into this incredible building. We will be working with Ipswich Borough Council. We will be sending them all of your feedback. We will work hard to ensure that this fabulous beacon of our town's heritage is not neglected.
