Dates: Saturday 18 May and Sunday 19 May

Venue: South Mill Arts Centre, Bishop's Stortford

A fair of artisan makers and creators, covering sculpture, ceramics, textiles, jewellery, furniture, glass. Artists from across Hertfordshire show work in three dimensions, celebrating form, scale and texture. Buy art direct from the artists, and enjoy the visual surprise and delight of contemporary creativity.

We will be returning to the wonderful South Mill Arts in Bishop's Stortford where we will use the theatre allowing 25 exhibitors to show off their work. From ceramics to textiles, bottles, vases, rings and so much more – a delightful array of wonderful, desirable objects.

Our Big Makers Fair was a new venture for both Herts Visual Arts and South Mill Arts in 2023. HVAF had never previously devoted an event purely for three dimensional work, and South Mill Arts is well known for it’s plays, music and dance, so this is a great repeat opportunity.

The overall success of the Fair was due to the wonderful HVAF Members who took part, and to others who came along to support these amazingly creative people. It was lovely to see so many visitors having a look around, chatting to the artists and making purchases.

"Great organisation and planning from the team. Zooms and video of venue very useful"
