Get cosy at The Levee's Winter Warmer

Embrace the winter chill and enjoy cosy foods, hot drinks and unique local fashion at The Levee’s Winter Warmer this Saturday 27 July.

From 10.00am to 2.00pm, shoppers can discover one of a kind, handmade items from over 20 local stallholders, engage in hands on workshops like beeswax candle making and natural dyeing and enjoy live performances from local musicians.

The Levee’s Public Programs Officer David Graham says, ‘while staying cosy indoors might be tempting, we’re encouraging everyone to rug up and come out to support our vibrant local businesses.

‘There will be a fantastic selection of knitted, sewn and crocheted accessories, from vintage inspired jewellery and artisan soaps to clay creations reflecting the Hunter region.'

Live music will fill the Elgin Street end of The Levee Shared Zone from 10.00am, featuring Hunter based country artist Saralyn and acoustic folk performer Jarrod Grant.

‘We’re thrilled to highlight local talent and offer fantastic entertainment for the whole family with a wonderful lineup of musicians,’ Mr Graham says.

While shopping, don’t miss the chance to participate in free interactive workshops. Create your own beeswax tea lights and rolled candles with Ecru Candles or, join Studio Tinta to dye your own cotton tote bags using all natural plant based dyes.

‘We’re looking forward to activating The Levee this winter, starting with our winter mini markets and leading into Active August – a series of fitness and recreational events to enhance your wellbeing on Saturday 3, 17 and 31 August,’ Mr Graham says.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to experience the best of winter at The Levee Central Maitland. For more details, visit www.thelevee.com.au
