Festive market sparkles

The Rushworth Kinder group, kindergarten, and childcare will be on hand, generously providing a variety of teas, coffees and delicious refreshments.

Every sip and bite enjoyed by market-goers will contribute directly to their vital fundraising efforts, helping to enhance the learning environment for the children of Rushworth.

At its heart, the Rushworth Christmas Art and Craft Market is a celebration of the handmade.

While embracing a strong Christmas theme, encouraging the creation of festive and seasonal items, the market also proudly features a broad spectrum of artisan crafts.

From handcrafted ornaments to festive textiles, there will be an abundance of items perfect for adorning homes and gifting to loved ones.

The market welcomes a wide array of artistic expressions, including stunning small metal art pieces that add an industrial-chic touch.

Skilled woodworkers will present beautifully crafted chopping boards, intricate timber products, and other functional art that can be cherished for years.

The market’s strategic placement on the last weekend in November is no coincidence.

This carefully chosen date is designed to encourage local shopping and support the regional economy well before the traditional Christmas rush.

By offering a fantastic selection of locally made goods at this crucial time, the market aims to inspire residents to complete their holiday shopping within the community, fostering a strong sense of pride and ensuring that festive spending directly benefits local artisans and businesses.

It’s the ideal chance to get a head start on your Christmas list while discovering the hidden gems of Rushworth’s creative scene.
