Building South Cumbria's independent scene, one market, workshop and event at a time. We can't wait to welcome you through the doors of our first market! Building South Cumbria's independent scene, one market, workshop, and event at a time is not just a phrase; it is a commitment to fostering a vibrant community that celebrates creativity, local talent, and entrepreneurship. Each market we organise serves as a platform for independent makers, artists, and small businesses to showcase their unique products and services, allowing them to connect with the community in meaningful ways. From handcrafted goods to artisanal food, our markets highlight the diverse offerings that South Cumbria has to offer.  

Moreover, our events will not only focus on commerce but also on building connections among residents and visitors. We envision a series of engaging activities that celebrate local culture, music, and art, transforming our venues into lively hubs of creativity and interaction. We believe that by bringing people together through shared experiences, we can strengthen the fabric of our community and support the independent spirit that defines South Cumbria.  

As we prepare to open the doors of our first market, we are filled with anticipation and excitement. We can't wait to welcome you through those doors and invite you to experience the energy and passion that our independent scene embodies. Join us in this journey of discovery, support, and celebration of all that makes South Cumbria and the surrounding area a unique and inspiring place to live and work. Together, let’s build a thriving independent scene that we can all be proud of!
