Ghent is bursting with talent! From gems in ceramics to hand-made jewellery, soaps, prints and original clothing – you'll find it all at the makers' market. No mass-produced items there, just unique creations straight from the studio of local makers. Fancy browsing your way through a treasure trove of beautiful objects with a backstory? Simply stop by and be surprised!

A makers' market is not your average market. You won't find anything with a barcode here. What you will find, though, are items that are the fruits of the maker's head, heart and hands. From the first sketch to the finished product, the things you buy here have been made the traditional way. And you won't just be supporting the makers, but also an economy that deliberately sets out to be a bit slower, more conscious and more creative. And the item you take home with you afterwards is not just an object, but also the backstory that led to its creation!
