Artisan Events Wales

Artisan Events Wales Curating the best of handmade, from Wales & Borders. Member of Pedddle UK, Eventaly, & Just A Card. I can develop, promote and run your events.

I am a maker, curator and events coordinator, with lots of experience in marketing and events management. I love to forge connections between artists and makers, food producers and performers. Wales has such a wealth of talent and so many hard-working creatives... and there are not enough opportunities for makers to showcase their high quality creations. It is a huge honour and pleasure to bring a

lovely fusion of contemporary and traditional skills together at our warm and friendly events. Services: I can create your digital marketing, and I can set up your social media pages, or run them for you, helping to expand your reach online and in person. I can advise and help set up new websites, or tweak some tired-looking ones!

We had a fab visit to Brecon Farmers & Makers Market on Saturday!

Enjoyed fresh Welshcakes, our doggo enjoyed handmade dog treats, and we chatted to familiar faces, and new ☺️

It was lovely to have some of our regular makers booking into future events on the spot, using the very handy weare_eventaly , which both myself and the makers find so useful!

Of course you can also find all dates on the pedddleuk website too 🙌🏼

Announcing our second group of makers for this weekend’s event at !

Let’s begin with the tempting descriptions…

: handmade natural tea soap and shampoo bars, palm oil free, cruelty free and vegan friendly.

: a range of unique and rustic items made from windfall on their farm, including chopping boards, charcuterie boards, tables, stools…

: individual and one off jewellery designs with an organic quality

: pottery inspired by nature. The sea is a particular inspiration for Bill, with its ebb and flow and the multitude of creatures that live in and around it.

“The Fairy who lived in a pop can” is a book written by Suzan Alderton (illustrated by Cardiff Metropolitan University art students Polly Allburn and Naomi Bennet), about the importance of protecting the environment. It is a non-profit fundraiser for children with dementia and children with cancer. A beautiful and educational tale!

: Herefordshire produced wines, liqueurs and mead, with home grown ingredients and honey from their own hives

What an outstanding selection once again… it’s going to look so fabulous in the two stunning rooms! You’ll find some of our makers in the Function Room and some in the Conservatory, with the bar and sitting room to enjoy in between…

D A T E S F O R D I A R I E S:

Don’t forget to pop all the dates of our Artisan Markets into your diary so you don’t miss out …

🌟🌟🌟 Today I’ll be emailing the stallholders for this weekend’s event, and begin posting about each maker, so our customers can see who will be attending 🌟🌟🌟

We are so lucky to have such amazing venues! 🏰

And it’s such a pleasure to be supported by too - making it so much easier for all visitors and makers to find us! 👏🏼

NB: when looking up the address for this weekend, google maps sometimes adds “Swansea” to the online address… it isn’t in Swansea though! 😉
is at the edge of Pen Y Cae village, near Dan Y Ogof caves, in the Tawe valley route from Swansea to Brecon - please see the extra map images for details 🤓 - you can see it is close to many towns and villages.

There’s also the beautiful Country Park next door, perfect for exploring in between browsing the amazing stands inside the Castle - you can take a picnic, or buy lunch from the Castle in their bar, and outside will be one of the best barista bars in Wales - .uk , with delicious, fresh coffees, teas and speciality drinks.

Can’t wait to begin sharing all the information later!

Look forward to welcoming you…
