The Arts Market @ The Cargo Shed


On one of my boredom walks a couple of weeks ago along The Strand area here in Tauranga, situtated on the edge of the waterfront is the Arts Market @ The Cargo Shed. This place opens every Saturday and allows local artists to showcase and sell their creative works of art. I intend to check it out at some point :-)

There should be lots of goodies in there!

The building reminds me of my uncle's produce merchant shed in Australia when I was a child. I used to think it looked like a railway station. Even now I remember the smell of potatoes and onions that lingered even when the shed was empty. I look forward to more photos from market days.

It looks definitely like a place to hang out for a while and happily. Can I copy your term "boredom walks". (Only in my own mind)

you're more than welcome to use that phrase, it's certainly very useful :-)

I'm glad you had some good memories of it, I'll have to pop down one weekend when it's open and check it out :-)

A walk at the waterfront sounds nice. And I am glad the artist have a place to show off their work. Have a happy day!

Sounds like a nice spot. I still haven't been to Tauranga.

How nice to help the local artists get the work seen. It looks like the perfect place.

  This has been one of the early buildings in Westport from the 1870s that is still being used for the local newspaper, so much old Victoria...
