Sadly most of our events have been cancelled due to the Coronavirus. Some of them have decided to stage the events online, which is very welcome for all the Makers and Organisers alike.

We are proud to have joined up with Brilliant Little Brands.
At a time when many face such uncertainty, there are many wonderful on-line initiatives being created to support charities - many of which are in real crisis. One such initiative is Brilliant Little Brands - A brilliant little idea hatched by a group of friends who met through the Charity Fairs Association. They recognised that as small businesses there is little we can do on our own, but by working as a collective we could make a real difference. So they have created different online fairs, each supporting a different charity.
Every business that is collaborating with Brilliant Little Brands has pledged to donate 10% of sales to the selected charity at the end of each week. Simply shop via one of the charities listed on their website.
Many of the brands featured are unique, creative and handmade; they are not easily found on the high street or may trade at retail events across the country which have been closed or cancelled. This collaboration also helps to showcase all of these small businesses, many of whom are dependent on successful online trade, now more than ever.
We hope you visit and support Brilliant Little Brands to shop, save and give. Together we can make more of a difference.

The 6 Artists' Collective
An art show with a good cause
19th to 22nd November
We are delighted to announce that the magnificent 6 are back! Following the success of their third show at the historic Farnham Pottery last year, The 6 Artists Collective have decided to hold this year’s show as a virtual pop-up on Instagram.
As always, the show will have a uniquely curated mix of contemporary ceramics from Ali Tomlin, paintings by Ruth Taylor and Nic Cowper, glass works by Nicky Lawrence, mosaics from Denise Jaques and our lovely Art Scarves.
The award winning artists will post a selection of their work each day between 19th to 22nd November on Instagram, where customers will be able to buy pieces directly, with 10% of every sale donated to Phyllis Tuckwell hospice care. This is the only Hospice Care service for adult patients and their families, across the whole of West Surrey and part of North East Hampshire. Last year the show raised over £800 for the Hospice and this year, despite challenging times, they hope to raise even more.
The Quarantine Art Fair event on Instagram 4th - 5th December - Created by Jeweller Hannah Duncan and Inspired by a need to help fellow artists and makers during the lockdown, Visitors will be able to ‘meet’ the artists through posts, process videos, and commenting, allowing customers to find out about designing and making processes and gain an insight into how the work is made. All the work showcased is available to buy.
