Launching the Alternative Makers Market at Haverhub April 14th 3-10pm.
The new way to combine buying local, buying beautiful and buying in person;
while having a lovely afternoon or evening out with your family! The more
generations the merrier!
“In collaboration with Makers bizarre fair, HaverHub is delighted to bring an
afternoon and evening of entertainment for all the family. Friday 14th April will
be the launch of what we hope to be monthly Friday evening of feel-good fun
and entertainment” explains Molly Lewis, Venue Manager at Haverhub.
This Free-entry event will include:
Makers Bizarre Market: with a range of locally made items, from art to
jewellery and everything in between. Relax to LIVE LOCAL MUSIC and enjoy a
choice of family food from Mexican, Venezuelan dishes, Bagels and Pizzas to
keep you going!
Happy kids mean happy parents, with children’s crafts,
Pembrokeshire Bouncy Castles and Face Painters are joining the event to make
sure there is something for everyone. The bar and depot will also be open for
plenty of additional mingling spaces.
The Back Story: ‘Makers Bizarre’ began when two local small business owners
grew tired at the lack of opportunities to showcase their products and knew
that fellow small business owners must be feeling the same.
Encouraged by shared frustrations, Jenny & friends decided to start their own markets, showcasing the talented local makers and producers to the public.
A meeting between HaverHub and Makers Bizarre quickly gelled into a collaboration to do ‘an alternative market’, also focusing on locals and young families, who find
it hard to go out on the weekends with few family-friendly spaces in Haverfordwest town centre.
Jenny Miles of Makers’ Bizarre said “The HaverHub on Quay Street is an
amazing, local, multi-purpose community space with fantastic potential to be
used by all for a variety activities."
Together these two businesses aspire to bring something new and alternative
to Haverfordwest, building on the popularity of the Farmers Market and Craft
Fayres, but this time combining a family friendly evening event: taking over the
whole fabulous, Old Post Office site with its café, hall, courtyard and
depot/bar.
“The hope is that this will become a series of inclusive events for local talent and trading that families and friends can come and enjoy together, in a safe
and fun community environment” explains Gitti Coats of HaverHub.
Future Dates scheduled for The Alternative Market so far are April 14th, May
26th, June 30th, July 28th, Aug 25th and Dec 15th
.
Also launching in Haverhub’s spacious depot warehouse a week later: Depot
Film Nights!
From April 21st expect some Alternative film nights where an informal venue,
with a bar and the freedom to dress to impress according to the film can be a
great way to go out with your friends and family. First Film – ELVIS! Groups
can reserve large tables. Please contact info@haverhub.org.uk
