“What’s your community?”: MARKETPLACE artists talk with Izzi Recalde

press play 🙂

The MARN MARKETPLACE sells handmade items from our member artists to visitors at the HUB, passing a majority of the sales revenue back to our artists. But who are some of these artists, and who do they make art for? We spoke to eight of them about how they define their communities, and compiled them here. Artists include: Katie Hunt, Josseline Castillo, Brandon Marchant, Mohammed Hasanin, Stacey Stewartson, Jenny Kyle Smith, Marco Romantini and RJ Jones.

The MARN MARKETPLACE is a curated retail art market located within the MARN ART + CULTURE HUB and online HERE! The initiative seeks to support MARN CREATIVE Members as a consignment platform for small works & artisan goods.
