Events & Markets

From established arts festivals to independent artisan markets, I’ll be exhibiting at a range of events across Dorset this year.

These include Mudeford Arts Festival, Swanage Fairy Festival, Shake & Stir Vintage Festival, Bryanston and Canford School Fairs, Highcliffe Food and Arts Festival, Sturminster Newton Cheese Festival, and more. Each event is a chance to experience my work in person, explore new pieces, and enjoy the atmosphere of Dorset’s creative community while supporting independent makers.

A touch of magic!

I have several exquisite pieces from MarchMadeArt which I adore!

The artwork is otherworldly and ethereal, bringing a touch of magic to my home. I highly recommend MarchMadeArt to anyone who enjoys artwork that embodies the elements of the natural world.

J'Adore

I adore my necklace from the very talent Sammy who makes all these pieces.

Each piece is unique and the colour combos are lush.

I love Sam's artwork

The colours & designs are amazing.

I gave my mum a beautiful glass chopping board for her new kitchen and she loves it

Entertaining & Fun

I very much enjoyed the paint pouring workshop I attended with my two friends.

The workspace was well organised and all set up for us, and we had plenty of different colours to choose from.... The whole experience was entertaining and fun and I certainly feel more comfortable to have a go with this new crafting technique I've learned.

- KATE

Highly recommend trying any of the workshops

Whatever your level of experience - Beautiful garden studio to be creative in!

This was my First time trying acrylic painting... Samantha is such a talented artist & so patient going through every step at your own pace. Afternoon tea to finish the day & then you receive your creation once it's dry! Panning on booking the next one.

A brilliant day, 10/10

I took my team to a fabulous workshop with Marchmade Art as part of our company birthday celebrations.

Sam was so welcoming, the space was wonderful, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves - it was amazing seeing people's creativity come out. A brilliant day, 10/10, would 100% recommend!

Even Better than Expected

First class, the product looks really nice.

And even better than the photos. Conversation and communication was really good as well. I will look forward to getting some more items at a later date.

So Pleased!

Very beautiful piece of artwork.

Colourful and bright, looking great against the white background. Arrived quickly, lovely shop owner. I would recommend this shop, and would visit again. Very pleased with my purchase
