London, E8. We’re taking over the already established Netil House
Market and creating a gathering of artists – fine artists, street
artists, print makers, art enthusiasts, collectors, people who
just

traditional market stalls alive with very reasonably priced art, we’ll
have live art, food art, a music stage with bands playing all day. An
