Future Festive: Winter Art Market
ArtHouse Jersey has opened the doors to its Future Festival: Winter Art Market, which has transformed Capital House into a festival playground of creativity.
The market is now open to visit until Sunday 21 December, and entry is free with no bookings required.
Future Festive sets out to reimagine the traditional Christmas market, inviting islanders to step into a colourful, community-driven celebration of local talent from 16 artists and community groups.
Running daily from 12pm until 6pm, with a late night opening until 8pm on Thursday 18 December, the event offers a welcoming and interactive art environment.
Beyond the market stalls, visitors can immerse themselves in two sensory installations designed to inspire slow, reflective moments amid the festive bustle.
