Artisans Market...

Show Hall, Recreation Park, Main Rd, Willunga.
The Willunga Artisans Market arose from the necessity to find a display and
sales outlet for quality original art and craft.
The first markets have been very successful, and the feedback from locals and
visitors has been positive and encouraging. The rapid growth of the artisan
community in the area and the excellent market location combine to promise a
vibrant future.
There are some 20 stall holders who sell a variety of high quality and unique
hand made products such as ceramics wood art, photographic art, jewellery, glass
art, textile and fibre art, printmaking, acrylic and watercolour arts, paper
craft and sculpture. These artisans are all based in the Onkaparinga and
Fleurieu regions, in accordance with the market's aim to support and promote the
development of local art.

friendly atmosphere.
