Sunday Makers' Markets

Welcome to our new monthly Sunday Makers' Markets at beautiful Etal Village in Northumberland - on the first Sunday of each month (apart from October when we stage a special autumn event on Sunday Oct 26).

Every event features a variety of local makers, from original art and prints, to ceramics, glass, wood sculpture, artisan breads, jams, soap and much more. We will also often have free arts and craft demonstrations and occasional workshops which can be pre-booked directly with the artists.

See details below about how to book a space with artist Ali Edwards for her Green Sketching (outdoor) Workshop on Sunday September 7. 

We still have spaces available for our Autumn Sunday event in October and are also accepting registrations of interest for 2026 events. Please email info@thetinshed.co.uk 

 

Etal Village Hall, Ford and Etal, Northumberland.

Green Sketching Workshop 

Join local artist, Ali Edwards, who'll introduce you to some simple, stress-free sketching techniques as part of a walk around Etal and beside the River Till, learning to really 'see' nature. 
Designed for absolute beginners as well as more experienced artists looking to be inspired by nature, this Green Sketching Walk is all about relaxing, observing, and enjoying time spent outdoors and the process of sketching - not the end result!

Day & Time: Sunday 7th September 2025.   10.30am - 12.30pm
Location: Meet at Etal Village Hall, Etal TD12 4TL 

Cost: £35pp

As part of the workshop, you'll receive basic sketching supplies - including a sketchbook, some drawing tools - and 'An Introduction to Green Sketching' booklet with lots of exercises and tips for keeping your Green Sketching habit going.

Please contact Ali for more information and book directly with her via this link: https://www.coostie.co.uk/art-prints-and-gifts/p/an-introduction-to-green-sketching-workshop-7th-september-2025

Please get in touch and send a couple of images or a link to your work We still have spaces for Sunday October 26 and are also taking registrations of interest for next year's Sunday markets (2026) which are on first Sunday each month April-October (except June).

We're looking for artisan makers, who design and handcraft everything themselves - from paintings and prints, to glass, textiles, fibre art, ceramics, chocolates, cheese, soaps, jams, bread etc.

We'd also like to hear from any local farmers/gardeners who'd like to sell fruit and veg or flowers (fresh or dried) or any drop-in musician buskers for outside on the lawn (weather permitting) to create mini farmers' market vibes.

As well as Sundays, we also have a monthly Arts at Etal fair, on second Wednesday each month April - October. Please see separate event page.
