The Creators' Nights is a brand new event from the Office of Trade and Crafts, run in partnership with the Association for the Promotion of Arts and Crafts (APMAA).
This event, which aims to highlight and promote the work of local creators and artisans, begins this Friday, July 18 and will be held every Friday until August 22 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. along the port on the green side, explains Allison Oeuvrard, manager of the trade and crafts office chaired by Patrice Dubesset.
These Creators' Nights are in the same spirit as the craft markets which attracted a large audience who wanted more.
"For the first of this new event, forty-four artisans will be setting up shop at the foot of the footbridge along the port, most of them local, with a few others coming from a little further away but from Franche-Comté. It will be like this every Friday. We have a lot of requests. From the first registrations, we felt the enthusiasm and support for this type of event. The creators are passionate, proud of their creations, and the public is in awe of their expertise."
From jewelry to saddlery, ceramics, wooden objects, decor, and clothing, it will be a festival of unique pieces that the public will be able to discover in a festive atmosphere. It's also an opportunity to treat yourself or others with a gift.
Between visits from two exhibitors who are always ready to talk about their work, visitors can nibble on a crepe or other sweet treats thanks to the presence of food trucks allowing for a friendly evening in a magnificent setting and where the talent of creative artists, representing all trades, will be showcased.
Designers' Nights, every Friday from July 18 to August 22, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. along the harbor, green side. Office of Commerce and Crafts, 21 rue des Arènes, Dole, Tel. 03.84.82.50.82, [email protected]
