|
The community market day hosted by Phillipstown Community Hub on 21 January 2023 was a great start to the year with over 35 stallholders in attendance!
For sale there was a wide range of crafts, bric-a-brac, plants, artwork, honey, clothing, artwork, soaps and more. Entertaining the market for the day was the Ukulele group from Ngati Kahungunu Whānau, who played beautiful tunes for everyone to enjoy. TLC entertainment were also in attendance with a range of characters roaming the market to put a smile on peoples faces. Delicious Polynesian food was served by a fundraising group and Phillipstown Community Hub had $5 meals on the day – halloumi pitas with bbq vegetables or slow-cooked pulled pork buns with caramelised onion, yum! Cold drinks were available for a koha to the hub. Attendees of the market were able to have an experience receiving henna tattooing at no cost. Another no cost activity was stone carving, where attendees could learn how to create their own piece of stone artwork.
Overall it was a really successful day, we love having the opportunity to meet local residents of Phillipstown and connect with our community.
See you at the next market day on 18th March 2023, where we will have more stalls – including food vendors!
