PALENTINES MART - Queer art Market at Deptford Lounge!
We are so excited to announce that our next market will be a collaboration between Arty Farty Events and LDN Queer mart. The market will be at Deptford Lounge, a vibrant community centre and library once again! Join us for a day filled with art, creativity, love and community.
It's the sort of event you can come to alone, with a friend or partner or in a big group - either way you'll be sure to meet other lovely lgbtqia+ folk and feel the love of your community.
🎨 What to Expect:
- Stalls: Run by talented queer artists, business owners, and creatives with a range of mediums including art prints, ceramics, zines, clothing, originals, publications, risograph prints, sculptures, jewellery, textiles, and much more - we'll announce them all on our instagrams here and here
- Services: From Tarot to Tooth Gems - we always have lovely queer businesses & practitioners at our events and this one will be no different!
