I Should Be So Crafty - A market for people with Disabilities

Big creativity. Disability led. Everyone welcome.

Looking for a Sydney market with personality, purpose and a whole lot of creativity? Well, you’ve found it.

I Should Be So Crafty is an inclusive art and craft market celebrating disabled, neurodivergent and chronically ill artists, creatives and small business owners. Join us at Ashfield Town Hall on Saturday 12 December 2026 for a vibrant day of handmade treasures, original art, community connection and seriously good shopping.

Expect colour, creativity and the kind of unique finds that make you say, “I absolutely do not need this… but I’m definitely taking it home.”

Discover handmade treasures and local talent

If you love browsing handmade markets, finding original artwork and supporting independent Australian small businesses, this is the day out for you.

Meet the talented people behind the stalls, discover their stories and shop a wonderful mix of art, craft and handmade creations. Whether you’re looking for a little treat for yourself, something special for someone else or simply a fun day out in Sydney’s Inner West, there’ll be plenty to explore.

Every purchase helps support independent creatives and the small businesses they’ve built with imagination, passion and a whole lot of determination.

A market with a little more heart

I Should Be So Crafty is a disability-led market created to celebrate the talent, creativity and contributions of disabled, neurodivergent and chronically ill people.

For many creatives, running a small business can offer flexibility around health, access needs and medical appointments. Our market provides an opportunity to share their work, connect with the community and earn income in a welcoming space designed with accessibility in mind.

And the best part? Everyone is welcome to come along, meet the artists and support these brilliant businesses.
