Blak Markets March Festival

The Blak Markets will kick off the year back on Bare Island on Sunday 8 March with Aboriginal stallholders selling their arts and crafts with everything from native plants to award-winning jewellery to silk scarves featuring Aboriginal design.

As always there’s a wonderful Festival line up of both contemporary and cultural performances – this market featuring cultural dance performances by Djiriba Waagur, Singing performance by Charlie Trindall and weaving workshop with Nadeena Dixon

The Blak Markets are a great chance to buy authentic unique gifts knowing that 100% of the profits go back into Aboriginal communities and this market they also have some great new bushfood drink products to sell such as Boab Nut Iced Tea and non-alcoholic draft beers infused with native plant flavours from Aboriginal businesses in the bushfood industry.
