artsmix* Arts Markets

About the artsmix* Markets

We have been running our successful Markets programme for several years, and this has gone from strength to strength, travelling to venues all across Leeds and wider Yorkshire. Why has it been such a success? The answer is simple - what we do is truly unique and showcases the very best of local creativity.

We are dedicated to supporting and developing local creative talent and we encourage others to do the same by buying original handmade products. Buy unique and inspired art, design, craft and gifts but most importantly, meet the makers and designers!

“The Artsmix markets have added a lively buzz to Castle Howard’s stable courtyard area, and we’ve received good feedback from our visitors and our own staff. The goods on offer are well-selected, original, and of a high standard, complementing rather than competing with the ranges in our own shops. While it is hard to prove conclusively, the presence of the market may have boosted spend particularly in the Farm Shop. Our café reports good trade on the market days. Artsmix staff and their stallholders are friendly, well –organized and tidy, and we consider the presence of this market a positive asset.”

Lisa Parker-Gomm (Castle Howard Events Manager)

Quality is key at the artsmix markets and we have built our reputation from ensuring all stalls sell only the best self made items produced ethically, in line with our Values (detailed in ‘about artsmix*’).

Buy or browse, just call down – there’s no admission fee to any of our markets.
