Fox Valley hosts Homegrown Makers Market this weekend

8 October 2024

The Homegrown Makers Market is back at Fox Valley this weekend – part of the annual festival of the arts which is underway in Stocksbridge this month.

A host of makers will be taking part in this weekend’s event which will take place on Saturday October 12th in the market area at Fox Valley near to Home Bargains and Iceland.

This community event provides a great opportunity for talented local and independent crafters and makers to showcase their work.  This year’s market includes traders making everything from figurines, to bags, broaches and key rings as well as cards, gifts, jewellery and beautiful rag rugs and wall hangings.

The Maker’s Market is part of the two week long Homegrown Festival which is now in its third year. A host of events are taking place across the town with a grand finale being staged on Saturday evening at the Venue from 7pm showcasing local performers.

Alex Archer, Chairman of The Homegrown Steering Group said: “We have a great line up of brilliant local makers for our Makers Market which is part of the wider Homegrown Festival. We hope everyone supports this and other events throughout the week as well as our grand finale on Saturday evening.

“Homegrown is a great opportunity to celebrate the talent here in our local community.”
