Following a popular collaboration in 2024, North Down Craft Collective are back at WWT Castle Espie this Easter with a wide range of textiles, ceramics, paintings, prints, and plenty more in between.

Established in 2013, North Down Craft Collective brings together artists and makers in the Ards and North Down borough. What started as a monthly market in Holywood has now become a collective of creatives showcasing their work through exhibitions, pop-ups and fairs.

Many of the artists and makers take inspiration from the landscape and wildlife in the borough and these pieces will make up a large part of the work on show at Castle Espie.

The fair will take place in Castle Espie’s Visitor Centre. Free entry to market – normal admission applies beyond the visitor centre.
