Magical Mallow At Christmas
“Pop-up” markets located in both the Town Hall and West End Art Studios will showcase local and regional artists and crafters through the Council's “A Real Cork Christmas” campaign
From Wood to Wool crafts, from Painting to Pendants, Mallow’s festive Arts and Crafts Markets are going to be a fantastic addition to the town this December.
“Pop-up” markets located in both the Town Hall and West End Art Studios will be showcasing 26 local and regional artists and crafters who all applied through a call out from Cork County Council’s “A Real Cork Christmas” campaign. The initiative is actively supporting towns and businesses this festive season by promoting the vibrant range of hand-made gifts and products available locally while ensuring Christmas is still celebrated in a safe a meaningful way.
Councillor Pat Hayes, Chair of Cork County Council’s Kanturk Mallow Municipal District, is very pleased to see promotion of the Arts through this initiative.
“It is of utmost importance that we support the Arts at this difficult time. The Pop-up Markets are a very welcome addition to Mallow which has so much to offer throughout the year but particularly at Christmas. Wandering between the two Market locations will be an ideal opportunity to stroll along the main street in Mallow, admiring the many festive window displays that retailers have created and picking up what you need for Christmas this year.”
This project is supported by Avondhu Blackwater Partnership GLC. Always champions of community development, these Markets have given artist and crafters the opportunity to connect with purchasers as well as showcase their talents.
Both Markets will be open from 11.00Am to 5.30PM every Thursday, Friday and Saturday in December with the first doors being opened today Thursday December 3rd .
