MTNS MADE:

MTNS MADE are seeking applications from Blue Mountains artisans who would like to participate in the MTNS MADE stall at the ARTLANDS Art Fair in Dubbo. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of an exclusive stall in front of a large, art-buying audience.

Taking place 27-30 October, ARTLANDS DUBBO is a national conference and arts festival celebrating Australian regional arts and culture. The ARTLANDS Art Fair (29-30 October) is a curated, indoor market style event and MTNS MADE has been accepted as a group stall holder.  With an audience made up of the 800 artists and arts workers at the conference, plus the general public, the Art Fair is a rare opportunity to get your work in front of a large audience of willing buyers that appreciate handmade, high quality artisan work.

More than six artisans will be sent to participate and in exchange for a fee that goes towards costs, Kelly Heylen & Cassie Elliot (from BMEE) will transport your work, set up and manage the stall and return all proceeds of sales of your work to you.

Expressions of interest to participate in the Art Fair are due by Sunday September 24, with applicants notified of the outcome the following week.

The fee to participate in the MTNS MADE stall is $250 + GST, payable to BMEE within 14 days of being notified of your acceptance.

To participate you must have an up-to-date listing on the MTNS MADE website. It’s free, and you can create yours here:
