Applications for Markets - Now Open!

Have you ever thought about selling at a craft market? There are some great Auckland events coming up that are taking applications now.

The first Auckland Art and Craft Fair went so well in July (see this previous post ) that it will be back in December, this time in a bigger venue at the Aotea Centre (pictured). All the application details are here. The Fair is organised by the Auckland Craft Collective  - they also have an info night coming up about blogging, Twitter and Facebook (featuring one of our absolute favourite bloggers, L'il Magoolie ).

I didn't get to First Thursdays in its previous life, but I will definitely be checking out its re-boot on December 2nd. Held at St Kevin's Arcade on K'Rd, it is at night (6pm-9pm) with art, craft, food and music - sounds like a party! Applications are open now at www.firstthursdays.co.nz.

Crafternoon Tea is celebrating its first birthday in October and taking applications now. In June 'CT' was our first experience of being sellers at a Craft Market, and it was like a crash course - such friendly people and a very high standard of products (see post).

After having a break for a couple of months, we here at OTLP are very excited to be doing our next market in Devonport on Sunday, October 3rd. Applications are now closed but check http://devonportcraftmarket.blogspot.com early each month for info. At the market we will be launching our new products for the holiday season, stay tuned...
