Christmas Scenes on Show for Charity

A native North American nativity scene complete with a tepee instead of a stable is among 200 nativity exhibits from around the world on show at Craigmillar Park Church this weekend.

For the last seven yeas the church has put on an exhibition based on the collections of one of its members.  Highlights from this year’s exhibition include a North American tepee scene, an elegant Norwegian crystal group and a brightly coloured tin set from Mexico and more traditional scenes.

The exhibition is free to enter and open from 2pm to 4pm although donations will be gratefully received for Tearfund.
