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!

Taking your hobby to market free workshop


Do you have a hobby or a great idea? Would you like to earn an income from your hobby? The city of Subiaco is holding a free workshop for people aged sixteen to thirty to bring out the entrepreneur in you. It's on Tuesday 18th February from 6 - 8pm at Warehouse Cafe, 221 Onslow Road, Shenton Park. During the workshop you will consider all the factors in taking your hobby to market including your unique selling point, sales channels, pricing and promotion strategy.

Places are limited and preference will be given to City of Subiaco residents and applicants that have an existing idea/hobby to take to market.

For more information, contact the city on culture@subiaco.wa.gov.au or 9237 9216 and to book in, go here.

One person attending the workshop will have the further opportunity to gain a mentorship with Perth Upmarket to develop their product idea to sell at the June 2014 Perth Upmarket.
