WELCOME TO THE MARKET
After an incredibly challenging year, we are excited to help support the brilliant artist and maker community of Scotland. To do so, we made our Makers Market free to our sellers so that all can participate this season.
If you would like to help EOW support or maker community, we have started a fund to help 'BUY TIME FOR A MAKER'. This fund will pay for studio space for artists and makers who need, offering partial or full relief from studio or PAYG space hire.
A donation of £2 can help keep our Makers making, no matter what else 2020 brings. For those who can, we thank you!
Now, enjoy browsing the market!
