When Sir Stamford Raffles founded modern Singapore in 1819, he had a vision to turn the once sleepy settlement into a thriving and strategic port. Doing just that, The Artisan Market will keep the gorgeous Esplanade WaterFront buzzling to the tune of an eclectic and unique shopping experience against the breath-taking silhouette of Marina Bay in the month of April!

Happening on the 12th & 13th April at the Esplanade WaterFront Promenade, The Artisan Market will host more than 20 stalls featuring a mix of artisans and lifestyle vendors selling an eclectic blend of products and services ranging from hand-made accessories, arts & crafts, fashion apparels, decor, home-ware items and more , bringing a wonderfully fresh alternative to the increasingly standard fare the big malls deliver.

Visitors can expect an exciting line up from our bustling marketplace showcasing our participating artisans and lifestyle vendors such as Word Your Story (typography illustrated by your own stories), Aroma Bar ( organic skin care ) and Yenji Clay Craft(customized clay-crafts) and many more, providing a unique shopping experience for both our locals and tourists! The event is free and open-to-public so come on down to The Artisan Market at Esplanade and discover for yourself a treasure trove of unique items and handicrafts this April!
