Shop indie at our third Queer Makers Fair and pick up some unique gifts from Yorkshire creatives!
Around a dozen independent sellers will be selling their wares between 12pm and 5pm, so come along and find your next favourite pair of earrings, a new print for your wall or even a woolly hat.
The Our House cafe will be open throughout serving hot and cold drinks, plus the city is hosting Light Up Wakefield over this weekend so there will be plenty to see and do beyond the walls. It’s the perfect time for a visit!
Some sellers may only accept cash, although plenty have card machines.
No entry fee; all welcome.
