Showcase Your Work in Our Pop-Up Gallery

Submit your finished artwork or handcrafted pieces for a chance to be featured in our curated indoor gallery. We welcome paintings, fibre art, metalwork, woodcraft, and other original handmade work. Our team handles the space and sales, and a simple 20% commission helps support the event.

Need a dedicated booth? 

If you have a large volume of work, consider reserving an outdoor space.
