This year was the first year Leeds College of Art have held an Art Market to run alongside the degree show so you could say we were the guinea pigs to test the waters. Going into it I had some doubts that it would be a bust... but I was very mistaken. I will admit I had visions of an unorganised mess with no resulting sales and wasted time, however it proved me wrong. Once we had spent the day setting it up in the canteen it started to take shape. There was a great variety of things for sale from paintings to prints, badges to magnets and jewellery to cushions. Everyone had put a lot of effort into packaging, pricing and displaying their work along with business cards to make it all professional. The shop looked amazing and so I thought I'd show you some things.
