The Crafty Fox, London’s favourite craft market, is back for spring 2016. The season kicks off in Peckham with a weekend of designer-maker stalls, workshops, music and more at the Bussey Building on the 2nd and 3rd April.
Crafty Fox Market is a free-entry event that brings together an ever-changing line up of creative traders selling an exciting range of ceramics, textiles, jewellery, art-prints and gifts. Traders include: Lucie Ellen hand-crafted wooden jewellery, eight bear animal illustrations and Lahla Studio gifts for food lovers. Full list of designers can be found online.
As with every Crafty Fox Market this spring’s market in Peckham will offer an engaging variety of sellers – changing every day of each market, showcasing 100 traders over both days.
There’s always a chance for visitors to the Crafty Fox Markets to try out a new skill with hands-on crafter-led workshops. Peckham’s makers will be inspiring visitors with a series of fun and creative workshops:

Crafty Fox Market seasons are curated by an inspiring guest who helps choose the line-up of sellers for the event – keeping the event fresh by adding their eclectic tastes into the mix. This spring’s guest curator is Charlotte Abrahams, leading writer, curator and editor specialising in design and the applied arts. Charlotte has been working with Crafty Fox’s founder Sinead Koehler to pick out the most inspiring and exciting traders out of the hundreds of applicants to make each market day a unique mix.
Crafty Fox add to the atmosphere with a bar on site, that’s always well stocked with craft beer as well as a full line up of DJs spinning tunes all weekend at each of the markets.
The Crafty Fox Market was established as a social enterprise and creative community for contemporary craft sellers. Its aim is to provide an affordable way for designer/makers to bring their products to the public. Since its launch in 2010, Crafty Fox Market has been shaking up the traditional craft fair with weekend events attracting upwards of 4000 shoppers!
