At the Brittania web site you can find out about the Eisteddfod, historically a poetry contest but now includes music and dance; the Cymanfa Ganu, hymn singing in harmony; the Noson Lawen, a merry night and a chance to display music, dance and recitation talents; holidays and their customs; and the tradition of carving and giving love spoons!

You will also find information about the Cymanfa Ganu on our Music pages in the Being Welsh section.

If you’d like to try your hand at carving Welsh love spoons, visit the Classic Carving Patterns web site.  Scroll down past the ads to find a free online tutorial.  One place to buy love spoons, hand-carved by a woman living right here in Central Ohio, is http://www.blakespa.com/.
