If it can reasonably be considered a craft, you're likely to find it at this annual expo. Ceramicists, metalsmiths, glassworkers, and representatives from the "finer" arts, like painting, set up over 150 stations to display their various wares. Whether you like your art avant-garde (like Wendy Ellertson's mixed-media sculptures) or more traditionally decorative (like the sculptural flowers of Nicky Falkenhayn), you're likely to leave the market with a story as well as a gift, since part of the shopping experience here is meeting the artisans themselves.
