MoonMade supports and promotes local artists and makers by selling their goods while at the same time raising money and awareness of the charity Youth- Link Dundee. Youth-Link Dundee work with children who are at risk of becoming socially isolated, ages ranging from 5 - 18. Children are supported through group work or through one to one befriending. I have been a befriender myself since March this year- not with Youth-Link but with Families First in St Andrews so know a bit about this role and how important it is. I love the idea behind MoonMade in that its supporting a great cause as well as local crafts people- even the owners of the empty shops benefit by having their property showcased- so if you're in Dundee pop in!
You can see some of the artwork I have for sale in the second photo- the two framed pictures on the third shelf. Emily Moir has also put six of my smaller artworks on the wall which was lovely to see- click on Emily to see her work and find out more.
that's really cool
ReplyDeleteI've not heard of pop up shops - good idea :)
ReplyDeleteIt's fab, I was lucky enough to meet Emily at the West Fest and her stuff is beautiful. I really must get in to see it all. Especially as I only work round the corner!
