About us
Im Allison, (Ali) a local Artisan who created Artisans of Adelaide.
In 2018 after seeing a need in the industry for event organisers who understood what stallholders AND customers were wanting from an event we opened for 6 weeks during the Fringe
Since then our mission has been to create spaces to
support local SA makers and events that delight our visitors.
We have worked in and created local events, Pop Up shops, Artisan markets and Christmas events, all to support our South Australian makers.
My team and I are passionate about the amazing talent Adelaide has to offer and wish to provide a platform to small businesses to showcase their products.
Our first Pop Up Event was in Rundle St for the Adelaide Fringe in 2018, then again in a new location in Rundle st for our thriving Night Market during Fringe in 2019 and last in 2020.
We enjoyed record crowds (Pre Covid) at our Pop Up Bar, and our visitors shopped the night away with our local Makers and Creators.
In 2018 and 2019 the City of Adelaide engaged us to create an Artisan Christmas Market in Victoria Square as part of the Christmas Light Festive nights event.. We recently worked with the Placemaking Team to create 2 very successful MEANDER MARKET in Melbourne Street events in Dec 2023 and Mothers Day 2024.
We have worked with Pt Adelaide Enfield Council and now we are working with Prospect Council in our new RETAIL SPACE on Prospect Road, Artisans of Prospect!
This Christmas we are excited to have found a new INDOOR space for our CHRISTMAS GIFT MARKET!
Dec 1st at St Clair Rec Centre, Woodville Road.
We love what we do and I look forward to creating more events and spaces for local makers to thrive in future.
