Addison Rd Summer Night Makers Markets

Overview

It's well known fact that the current image we have of Santa Claus, with a jolly red nose and big white beard, was invented by Coca Cola some time early in the 20th century. Rather than bemoaning the consumerisation of Christmas though, why not embrace the gift giving? Giving and receiving gifts gives us no end of pleasure. Shopping for them can be almost as much fun, especially when done at exciting summer night markets. So pop on down to Addison Rd, visit the Indigenous art in the gallery, rummage through the Bower, check out the sustainable items in the Make A Difference Gallery, shop among the many stalls set up by local artists and crafters, eat the array of international food on offer and listen to the sweet melodies of Gypsy band Lola Lovina. Coca Cola entirely optional.
