There’s nothing as delightful as a day spent shopping at Gathered Design Market.
Proudly South Australian, Gathered showcases unique, locally-made products under one roof. You’ll be stretched to find anything that you’d see in a chain shop — it’s the perfect opportunity to find one-off pieces of art, jewellery, fashion and homewares to add extra pizzazz to your home or office. And with every purchase, you’re supporting local independent designers. Now, that’s satisfying!
For six years, Gathered Design Market has built up a strong tribe of loyal fans, both on social media and in person — and it’s now SA’s most anticipated design market, holding fabulous events four times a year.
Superstar creator and events extraordinaire Jenna is extremely modest, so you’ll never hear her tooting her own horn. “My vendors are the stars — they make Gathered what it is, and I love giving them a platform to sell their work and shine in front of a new audience.”
Gathered is the perfect stage for small business owners to grow. “Over the last six years, I’ve seen vendors expand from teeny tiny one-person stalls to having a permanent shop or stocking their products in boutiques all over SA — it makes me so proud,” Jenna says.
Gathered also gives you the opportunity to meet and be the maker with their creative workshops. Whether you’re dyeing your own silk scarf with local botanicals, painting ceramics or designing your own jewellery, you’ll have a ball and come home with your very own piece of art!
With great designers, comes great food and drink vendors — there are plenty to choose from and, of course, they’re all South Australian. Nothing beats homemade gozleme, packed full of flavour and oozing cheese, spinach or Turkish sausage.
The little piggy that went to market had the right idea because Gathered is licensed — kick back, enjoy live music, eat local produce and sip on a Chesterfield Whisky cocktail or a vino from XO Wine Co.
Whether you’re a market lover or a local creative, keep your eyes peeled for the next Gathered Design Market. “People who come to Gathered, come to shop — they always leave with their hands full of bags,” smiles Jenna.
