A relaxed seasonal tour of our 200 year old building, a former church which now houses Fabrica, a visual arts organisation.

Join seasoned tour leaders, Colette and Lucy, for a special illustrated tour of the former Holy Trinity Chapel. At this event you will discover two renowned figures; Frederick William Robertson and artist, Henry Holiday who contributed to the life and art of the Victorian era.

Hear more about what Christmas was like in Victorian Brighton, and get into the spirit of Christmas in our beautifully decorated space.
This will be a light-hearted and entertaining event, and our tour guides will give snapshot readings from sermons whilst dressed in Victorian inspired costume.

The tour will be taking place twice on this date:
