Amazing artists and crafts people
BAZAART is a juried Arts and Crafts Show & Sale and accepts applications from a wide range of established and emerging Canadian artists employing both traditional and experimental art forms. All exhibitors are encouraged to promote the unique and original design of their work and to use local and/or environmentally-friendly materials whenever possible.
At BAZAART you will find painting, photography, jewelry, ceramics, glass, fibre, metal and wood creations.
We love shopping handmade, and you will too!
Not just about shopping
BAZAART is filled with activities for everyone! Young and old come out to share the excitement of the day. Our presenting sponsor, SaskTel, offers children's activities such as face painting and community mural painting at their tent on the grassy rest area to the west of the main exhibition space.
Inside the Gallery, there will be free guided tours of our new summer exhibitions. As always there are activities for children in our Learning Centre.
