Applications are now open for makers to participate in our Christmas Craft Market 2023!
Professional makers are now invited to apply to be part of our fabulous Christmas Craft Market from 11 November to 21 December - the best festive market on the North Coast!
Our Christmas Craft Market takes place indoors in our ground floor galleries and showcases the best handmade contemporary crafts and artisan food producers, from ceramics to glass, jewellery design to textiles, wood-turning to festive decorations, homeware to stocking fillers, promoting makers from far and wide.
Last year’s market saw the highest footfall and sales to date, with over 2500 visitors over the five-week period and generating gross sales of nearly £17,000.00, and we are excited for 2023. We welcome applications from makers resident and working within the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough and across Northern Ireland but our primary objective is to support and promote professional makers/creatives whose sole income is from their creative work.
The market will launch on Saturday 11 November in partnership with Naturally North Coast and Glens Artisan Market who will be resident in our auditorium and outdoors terrace. Visitors on that evening will be able to view and shop the stunning handmade items, sample gourmet coffee, and homemade cakes and cuisine, while enjoying a fantastic festive soundtrack and welcoming atmosphere.
