Makers' Markets
Join a host of talented islanders for the regular Tresco Makers Markets - a community event supporting makers and showcasing local creative talent (market times vary)
Set up in the aftermath of the pandemic, the Tresco Makers Markets are a fantastic celebration of the creativity that comes from island life.
The markets are a staple of the season calendar and feature everything from children's clothing to wall art, and jewellery to hand sewn bags and pottery. With a plethora of Tresco artisans taking part, as well as several from Bryher and St Mary's too, it is a lovely way to shop as well as learn more about these beautiful islands.
The markets are held along the sea wall at New Grimsby unless the weather decides not to play ball - in which case, the makers shelter in the sanctum of the Flying Boat Studio. Times vary and are below (as well as advertised locally in the run up to the event).
