ABOUT THE FINDERS KEEPERS
This will be our 85th mindfully-made market - thanks so much for your amazing support over 17 years!
We couldn't empower so many independent small businesses across Australia to start, grow and thrive without you, our market-going fans. We know you love supporting local makers, finding unique and handmade wares, and filling your creative cup in a place that really feels like your own. As one fan recently told us, "it's like real life Pinterest ❤️".

Our very first markets were back in 2008, and since then we have supported thousands of small Australian creative businesses to make a living doing what they love, thanks to your support.
