OUR mission statement

MADE ON THE LEFT was founded in 2008 by independent designers to support Western Australian creative talent. We hold bi-annual handmade craft markets to showcase local designers.

Being on the left hand side of Australia no longer

means you'll be at a disadvantage.

Our aim is to support all creative designers and events showcasing independent labels. MOTL is a not-for-profit, non-partisan organisation. You may wonder why we promote other markets besides MOTL; it’s because it’s not about us, its about you; the buyers and sellers of indie wares. Here at the blog, you’ll discover up to date information about our latest market, the low-down on some of Perth’s emerging talents, other opportunities for artists and designers and a little bit of fun stuff too. It’s all right here… welcome!

Venturing South - Made on the Left Three announced!

Our 'grand plan' with Made on the Left was to promote Western Australian creativity, not just Perth creative life, which is why we are very excited to annouce our very first Made on the Left market to take place outside the metropolitan area.

We are not sure how much our collective chocolate obsession influenced the decision, but our first regional market will be held on Easter Saturday, at the Highway Hotel, Bunbury. Find it on Google map - http://tinyurl.com/7o69dl

At the gateway to the Southwest, the Bunbury Made on the Left Market is expected to showcase a host of new and unique designers from regional areas together with popular Perth-based artisans who will use the event as an excuse to visit the wine region! The Easter Saturday Market is also expected to attract holiday makers and locals who want to experience the best of Western Australian original art and design.

Continuing our theme of heritage pub venues by hosting the Easter Satruday Made on the Left Market at the historic Highway Hotel should ensure that the buzz and atmosphere of our previous successful markets at the Hydey carries through to this new location.

Applications are now open, so prospective sellers should check out our craft fair page for more information and application forms.
