independent tasmanian art & design

welcome

to our pop-up summer event !

For our Summer edition of the market we’ve joined forces with Pure Bride, to celebrate the loved up and the local!

We’re so thrilled to be a part of this event - we’re huge admirers of the Pure Bride ethos and their focus on local businesses that are vibrant, authentic, unconventional and beautiful.

Our bridal edit is a collective of local labels who create stunning products from a range of mediums; ceramics,

print, beauty, textiles and jewellery.

In true market style our stallholders represent designers + makers who create high quality bespoke products, with heart + soul - wares which we believe would be the perfect addition to any wedding.

We hope you will join us in sharing the local love,

the market is a boutique art + design event, showcasing independent Tasmanian designers, makers and producers. It is held six times a year in the intriguing Masonic Temple, Hobart.

Since its inception in 2009, it has become widely known for its exciting line up of exclusively local labels, along with its firm focus on authenticity and craftsmanship.

With an impressive collection of exhibitors from a wide range of disciplines, visitors to the market can expect to see established fashion illustrators sitting alongside small scale producers of bespoke ceramics. A very particular approach to stallholder selection ensures that while exhibitors are vastly different in almost every way, they all have a common thread; creative talent, a demonstrated integrity in their business ethos and original thought in their design process.

the market is carefully curated by Shannon Robertson & Holly Webber, who are committed in their mission to unearthing and showing off Tasmania’s veritable web of undiscovered talent, world-class products and the intriguing stories and inspiration behind the commercial reality of small scale designers and makers. In addition to their regular market events, the girls have recently hosted pop - up events at the Cancer Council Girls Day Out and at the Sustainable Living Festival. In 2013 they held Show & Tell, a forest-themed night exhibition of their stallholders, as part of the Festival of Voices programme.

Alongside co-curating the market, Holly & Shannon both run successful small businesses of their own and bring to the market their skills in graphic design, journalism, advertising, creative writing and marketing.

This helps them to provide exhibitors with a platform, valuable exposure and a reach for their products that extends beyond market day.

Shannon Robertson

Holly Webber is a freelance graphic designer and art director.

A graduate of the University of Tasmania with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Graphic Design and Photography – 2004), she has spent the past nine years building up her design practice, delivering creative solutions for clients on a State and National level.

Shannon Robertson is the whimsical designer behind the fashion accessories label, Whatever Heather.

Holly is a keen supporter of the graphic design and advertising industry, having volunteered her time as the State President of the Australian Graphic Design Association (AGDA), and a tutor for Award School.

She loves all things ‘clean and green’ and is a certified Health Coach, and is undertaking further studies in Nutrition…for something a bit different!

Shannon produces bespoke seasonal ranges for stockists nation – wide, and a coveted Heather Forever Collection, available from her online shop.

Whatever Heather is created from her attic studio in Battery Point, which is overflowing with all manner of Shannon type inspiration…oversized flowers, swans, chandeliers, battered crowns, and sometimes (if he fancies) her imperious but seriously beloved ginger cat Raspberry.

Alongside these creative pursuits, Shannon also works in an old fashioned antique shop on Hobart’s Waterfront, and is undertaking post – graduate studies in psychology at UTAS.

Demand to know where things come from, what is in them, who has made them and under what conditions.

Do not be led only by price but look for value and craftsmanship.

Buy only things and materials that respect the human energy that has gone into them and where the maker is rewarded fairly. kevin mccloud Kevin McCloud’s 43 Principles of Home
