Dean Clough to host monthly artisan market
The Editor
A new and exciting Artisan Market is coming to Halifax with a monthly event hosted at the iconic Dean Clough destination.
Dean Clough has partnered with the highly accomplished RSH Artisan Markets which already operates successful markets in Skipton, Haworth, Settle and Bingley. Its high quality, handmade artisan goods concept drives hundreds of visitors each month with a waiting list of traders for each venue.
From Sunday 23rd March 2025, Dean Clough will host monthly markets that promise a delightful blend of local artistry and unique handmade goods, including food and drink, alongside live music and engaging workshops.
Richard Feather, who operates RSH Artisan Markets alongside his wife Susan, said, “When we were approached by the Dean Clough team, we jumped at the opportunity to host our artisan markets there. It is such a celebrated and iconic destination, with a compelling history and stunning backdrop. Our traders are already queuing to become regular stall holders, and we anticipate the event will be a huge success.
“We expect to have around 50 traders showcasing their wares, from exquisite jewellery and bespoke homewares to delectable treats and one of a kind artwork. There will be something to spark joy for every visitor who can meet the makers, learn their craft and take home treasures that tell a story.”
Jeremy Hall, chairman and managing director at Dean Clough Ltd, said, “Our community values and support to small, local enterprise aligns perfectly with RSH Artisan Markets and we are thrilled to be able to host this monthly event. Indeed, many of our businesses at Dean Clough are independent artists and craft makers who we will be encouraging to get involved.
“Together with RSH Artisan Markets we will create a warm, welcoming environment that celebrates creativity in all its forms. Dean Clough has so much to offer with plentiful restaurants, cafes, shops, beauty and wellbeing services, art galleries, theatre and public realm that market visitors can also enjoy.”
Dean Clough is an award winning, 22-acre mixed use destination located close to Halifax town centre. It is already home to around 150 businesses employing over 3,000 people with Grade A office accommodation sitting alongside unique retail, leisure and cultural amenities.
