“We have been curating an exciting line-up of the best local designers from each state, some of which are new on the scene and some much loved favourites,” said Sarah Thornton, co-director of Finders Keepers. “Every year our community of emerging designers is growing, and it is a pleasure to be able to celebrate their work with a weekend of festivities, food, music and of course inspiring design.”

Whether it’s a moreish gourmet pizza from The Happy Camper pizza truck, or a decadent made-to-order dessert from St. Gerry, Melbournians won’t have to look hard to find a good time this October long weekend. Hosted at the Royal Exhibition Building, dog owners will find doggy beds worth showing off at Nice Digs, and jewellery lovers can expect handcrafted wooden beauties at Woodfolk.

This is merely the tip of the iceberg, with over 250 stalls offering everything from cutting edge fashion and artisan ceramics to organic coffee. Only $2 entry and free for kids under 12, there will be something for everyone at the Finders Keepers Spring Summer Market.

To celebrate, The School is putting on a serious show over the weekend of 3 and 4 August. “Even if you have been to a Horses Birthday Fête before, I promise you this one will be different,” says stylist Megan, and you just know she means it!
