Stitched Up Makers Market
The Stitched Up Makers Market is an exciting new element for the 2011 festival program.
A high-quality market featuring some of the region's best textile arts & crafts people, The Stitched Up Makers Market will be a brilliant opportunity for traders to find an appreciative audience for their handcrafted wares, and for visitors to meet the makers and buy a special something for themselves or friends and families.
The market will be the closing event of the festival, and will be held on Sunday July 10 from 10am - 4pm in The Memorial Town Hall at Wangaratta Performing Arts Centre. This high-exposure venue will provide a grand backdrop for the event, and will provide plenty of room for traders as well as demonstrations by local craft groups & charities.
