Are you an artist with work to sell?
Or an art lover with the urge to spend?
Nextdoor ari cordially invites you to our…
Makers Market @ The 4217. We are taking over the hallways of The 4217 creative hub to bring you an afternoon filled with art! Come sell your work or support local emerging artists and creatives by purchasing a thing or two (or three, or four…)! Stick around to design a badge and make some friends, then head a few blocks over to the free Springtime Festival in the heart of Surfers Paradise to enjoy some live music.
What?
The Makers Market is a one-day event that will provide an opportunity both for local makers to sell their works, and for Nextdoor ARI to put a little money aside for our future programming.
We hope to engage the local community and showcase the talents of The 4217 creative hub inhabitants and beyond! More information about the event will be released in the coming weeks…
