Freo Art & Craft market

Very disappointing.
I was quite looking forward to visiting these markets - focused on art and craft. Unfortunately they were a major let down. A total of perhaps 10 stalls, at least 5 of which were jewellery, and one of handmade glass beads. Perhaps other crafters, like me, have a fulltime job and are therefore unable to set up a stall on a friday. Strangely, these markets are only open thurs/fri.

I think Perth is in need of markets that only allow sellers of handmade goods. (perhaps I am biased). But how can someone who makes jewellery be expected to compete with the sellers of asian imports.

There are rumors of a 'upmarket market' on the perth foreshore, which is great, although the term 'upmarket' most likely equals expensive.

For now, I will wait for the next Cat Haven fete to set up my stall. It's great to be able to donate to them whilst selling my things.
