Porteño Mother's Day Market

Overview

The clock is ticking down, you've raided Pinterest, Etsy and every other homemade goods website you can find, and you've still got nothing. It seems like you're stuck with getting a cheesy Happy Mother's Day card, but don't lose hope — there's a last-minute market that you can go to. Porteño's Mother's Day Market on April 29 is here to save the day, or at least try to.

Porteño's is a market that's all about celebrating local creatives, designers and shop owners, and this is the perfect time to grab something homemade and distinctive for your mum. There'll be renaissance and baroque-style jewellery from Gabriella Luchini, prints and portraits from The Sweets Workshop, boutique and au naturale soaps from The Hoppery, and ceramics from Gretel Corrie — with each piece is inspired from organic shapes and colours found in nature.

Since the market kicks off at 10am, you're going to need your morning fix, so the market has set up several snack booths throughout. 212 Blu will providing the freshest espressos, boozy arvo drinks will be on offer from Archie Rose Distillery, and Continental Delicatessen will bring along canned, smoked meats (plus lager cravings).
