Sunny Bank Mills Gallery is a light and airy art gallery inside a former cloth warehouse. The mills, situated in the heart of Farsley village just outside of Leeds, have undergone a cultural rebirth since ceasing the manufacture of worsted cloth in 2008.

Their Christmas Market is renowned for bringing some of the best original artworks, crafts, prints, homeware, jewellery and more into a historic space. Making Christmas shopping equally as enjoyable as giving the gifts. This year, the market is moving to the beautiful 1912 Mill, making room for even more local and unique artists to share their work.

Expect over fifty local Artists and Makers a day, with a mixture of disciplines, backgrounds and practices. Sunny Bank Mills pride themselves on their curation of excellent work regardless of discipline so you can be sure of the quality on the tables. Whether you’re looking for a statement piece for your own home or a truly bespoke Christmas gift for a loved one, you will be spoilt for choice amongst the melee of maker’s work.

There will also be a children’s play space, print workshops, mulled wine and lots of Christmas spirit as well as free parking. Visitors should bare in mind that the venue is accessible via one flight of stairs or a lift, but there will be attendants on hand to offer assistance if needed.
