About The Lost Trades Fair

Many traditional trades that were once commonplace in our society had lost direction, lost commercial viability and the artisans practising these trades in many cases were disappearing from our landscape.

The Fair aims to inspire, to educate and to open the minds of the next generation to demand something made by a real person rather than a machine; to think about sustainability and the longevity of what they buy and use, to excite people to have the confidence to design, make and create something real, crafted by their own hands – and to show them what people can do with practice, passion and knowledge.

Skill, tradition, lost arts, rare trades and heritage crafts. Meet the makers; see how things are made; made by hand, made with skill and made to last. Incredible world class career makers practising their trades; coopers & carriage builders, silversmiths & saori weavers, glass blowers & gunsmiths, chandlers and clockmakers – over 100  traditional artisans from Australian and abroad come together for this spectacular event.
