The Ballina Contemporary Art Market is a one-day, fun-filled arts and cultural event taking place on Saturday 14 October 2023 from 10am – 7pm at the Northern Rivers Community Gallery (NRCG) & Ignite Studios creative precinct, showcasing the creative talent of the region.
Free to attend, the event will feature over 50 arts and crafts stalls located within the Gallery, Ignite Studios, and surrounding gardens, selling a range of artworks, products, and wares by artists and artisans from across the Northern Rivers.
Throughout the day, an exciting program of free creative workshops will be available for market goers – weaving with Jugan Dandii, collage workshops with Claudie Frock and playing with clay sessions facilitated by local ceramicists. Local visual artist Kate Stroud has developed a range of installations, including a skill testing machine, a cloud corridor and a series of augmented reality portraits for market attendees to engage with and discover.
