IT IS ALMOST TIME! Important info below:

Bring cash as many of the artists have been dragged out from their artist lairs and don't have eftpos machines (some will also be able to accept bank transfers).

Free hot drink with entry ($5, eftpos available). Children under 12 free. This is a fundraising event, feel free to donate extra if you would like!

One of the artists is going to be printing people's clothing for them - don't forget to bring your light coloured tees, jeans, tote bags, tea towels etc and have them jazzed up for a small koha.

There is a stall for kids to decorate their own masks (gold coin).

We have parking in the orchard behind Zappekin as usual, please head to Zappekin to be directed by one of our lovely volunteer Parking Wizards. Our regular carpark is reserved for disabled parking, please tell the first Parking Wizard if you require this.

To get to Zappekin you can turn down either Wood Loop, or Weka Road and follow the road around. Weka Road has a turning lane if you are coming from Nelson.

You are welcome from 1-5pm (Sunday May 3rd)

Thank you to the sponsor of our coffee for the day, ❤️

Thank you to all of you for coming, supporting the artists and the Zappekin space - and creating the vibe!

Ana Solo runs Sugarcube Studios with her partner Danny, building digital spaces and branding. But when she steps away from the keyboard and into the quiet of her Tapawera studio, she happily trades pixels for things she can touch, feel, and get messy with, embracing a world where there is no "Undo" button.

Ana's art is born out of her love for the natural world. At the market, she will be offering illustrative sun-printed cyanotypes, unique papercut jelly prints, and her classic screenprints. It’s been ages since she last emerged from her studio to sell at a market, so she hopes you'll stop by, say hi, and ask about her sun-printing process, if only to remind her how to socialise in person. :-)
