Made By Tottenham, Haringey’s platform dedicated to supporting the local creative community, opens its first ever pop-up shop on Tottenham High Road.
40 independent makers, artists and designers have been selected to stock the shop. There will be unique, original and thoughtful products at affordable prices (from £2 to £150, with the majority of items under £30), including postcards, prints, children’s books, toys and clothes, fashion items, jewellery and homeware. The pop-up shop will be located at The Trampery, a focal point for entrepreneurship and creativity in Tottenham.
Much more than a retail experience, the Made By Tottenham Pop-Up Shop features a programme of creative workshops led by the same makers stocked within the shop (comic drawing, wrapping paper making, monoprinting and more). You may also get a complimentary glass of mulled wine when visiting. Come and Meet-the-Makers at our show and tell event on the 26th November between 12:00 and 18:00. Follow Made By Tottenham on Instagram @madebytottenham or sign up to our newsletter to hear about special events.
