Canberra market shoppers can come in from the cold this Sunday 28 June with the opening of the Winter indoor art and craft market at the Tuggeranong Community Centre.
With winter well and truly upon us this is welcome news for those who love traditional weekend markets but aren’t so keen on braving the cold.
The organisers of the event, who are a group of regular market sellers themselves, realised that they had enough of spending hours at outdoor events in freezing conditions and decided to start their own indoor market.
“Most markets are held out in the open and it can be bitterly cold in winter”, said organizer Jennine Mayfield.
“The Tuggeranong Winter Market will be a warm place for both buyers and sellers to do business without the biting winds and chilling cold.
”The indoor market will feature a range of arts and crafts including aromatherapy, hand-crafted jewellery and scrap booking supplies. Other stall holders will also be on hand offering quality manufactured goods providing buyers with a range of items to choose from.
“We are hoping to showcase some of Canberra’s talent with a very niche offering of products”, said Ms Mayfield.
“So whether it is handmade or manufactured, we are looking for quality not quantity."
The Tuggeranong Winter Market will be held on Sunday, 28 June at the Tuggeranong Community Centre, 245 Cowlishaw St, Greenway between 10am and 2pm.
- Entry is free to the public.
