Art Bazaar 2026

This gathering of the region’s most talented makers and creatives is thoughtfully curated by Hunter Arts Network and has been taking place since 2002.

Newcastle’s iconic Art Bazaar continues to be the leading artisan event on the local creative calendar. This gathering of the region’s most talented makers and creatives is thoughtfully curated by Hunter Arts Network and has been taking place since 2002.
Attendees can explore a wide range of stalls featuring hand made work by local creatives including painters, ceramics, printmaking, fibre/textiles, photography, sculpture, jewellery, glass, graphic, homewares and much more.
The market brings together a community of like-minded members who are all local creatives producing unique, handmade, high quality art and design-based work, while Art Bazaar continually brings this handmade art community to loyal followers who find gifts or treats for themselves, while meeting the local Hunter makers and artists they are supporting.
Food and coffee stalls and live entertainment are part of the experience
Art Bazaar will be returning in 2026 on these dates and Latin Velvet duo is performing live again at every Art Bazaar in 2026 – IG @latinvelvetmusic – www.latinvelvet.com
