Just over a week ago we launched our third Finders Keepers Markets at CarriageWorks in Sydney. This was by far our biggest with over 80 design stalls spanning over the great CarriageWorks foyer and the addition of 2 new fashion rooms, including the Art Mill area which 16 featured artists showing their work! A collaboration art space put together by our friends at Happenstance with the Finders Keepers.

We also featured a set design installation by Michelle Mccosker at Reefknot in the theme of ‘Where the Wild Things are’ – with lots of little creatures and a very popular fabric wooly mammoth on display. We also had a great line up of live music from local independent musicians on the stage making the weekend truly special.

It was a beautiful weekend with a great vibe once again, great turnout with lots of crowds but with our new improved layout – plenty of space for everyone to come and enjoy the day! We’d like to mention a big thank you to our host CarriageWorks again for their support and wonderful venue, our friends at Publissimo for their amazing ongoing publicity support, our new Art Mill partners Happenstance, our product & media sponsors Made by White and Made590, and all of our media supporters Frankie Magazine, Leeloo, Twothousand and Indie. Also some supporters that have helped us – FBi radio, Udessi and Object. Also a very big thank you to our lovely intern Lauren and our great volunteers! We couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank you to our designers, artists and musicians that made the event so unique – especially those who travelled from all around Australia and even as far as New Zealand! Don’t forget you can check out their profiles here.
