Art Markets

Grab Booths At: www.thelocalpeoplesg.com We are nomadic space activators with a knack for repurposing disused places.

Born from a desire to give craftsmen and women, young and old, an opportunity to sell their wares, The Local People art markets have now grown into a community where like-minded artists, designers and cooks share a space and their time for a day. It's the anti-thesis to mass manufacturing and thoughtless buying. Here, we want you to talk to the people who've made your unique purchase. On top of th

at, every event includes a showcase of the best of Singaporean underground film and music you can't find on the telly. The Local People started in 2014 with four restless young 'uns who were wondering why there wasn't any one platform for Singaporeans to sell/share their goods. They first set up an e-store, with the impression that it'd be a more doable task given the close-to-none overheads. Then in May the same year, they were offered a space (Hoot Kiam Road alley) to use. They decided to pull together some of their friends and their friends' friends for a one-night-only art market. Despite their reservations and the bad weather, the turn out exceeded all expectations and through word of mouth recommendations, got their next gig. Now close to three years and numerous art markets later, The Local People have found their niche as an advocate for Singaporean arts culture. And perhaps in trying to answer the incessant question of what exactly does local art culture consist of, help build living proof in the form of a close-knit community.
