August 4 Arts and crafts market in Santiago de la Ribera
The market is held on the seafront of the Explanada Barnuevo alongside the Mar Menor
Santiago de la Ribera in the municipality of San Javier usually hosts a bi-monthly artisan market, the Mercado Artesanal del Mar Menor, and the first such event in August takes place on the first Sunday of the month.
Around 25 stalls are open selling hand-made items from across the Region of Murcia, with a wide range of hand-crafted products, all from genuine regional artisans - as an added bonus it is in a seafront setting on the Explanada Barnuevo, making it an even more attractive proposition for a trip out followed by a coffee or a walk along the seafront.
The market is open from 10.00 until midnight and the stallholders on this occasion are:
Susana Hernández (natural cosmetics)
Laura Romero (hand-decorated t-shirts)
Fran Bueno (leather and handbags)
Ana Andrades (handicrafts)
Gloria Piñol (decoration)
Rosa María Martínez (soaps)
Cesar Honorato (marble)
Conchi Soler (bonsai)
