DISCOVER THE WINTER MARKET

MORE THAN A MARKET

Our events are about more than shopping. They’re places to meet the people behind the work, learn something new, discover independent craft and take part in making yourself.

WANT TO TAKE PART?

Our maker community receives priority access to selected markets, events and opportunities throughout the year. If you’re interested in joining The Makkist as a maker, we’d love to hear from you.
