Markets Bring Communities Together at Arcare

Arcare Oatlands and Arcare Glenhaven welcomed over 800 people to their Festive Market Days; offering a range of markets and workshops to help prepare for the festive season. Over 25 stalls holders provided the community with a vast choice of gifts, bath and body products, personalised presents and fresh produce.

The variety of local makers and growers was impressive!

Shoppers also had the opportunity to create their own Christmas wreath or centre piece with the florist as well as make Swarovski Christmas earrings at the workshops provided.

Animal lovers were invited to bring their pets along for a free professional photo shoot!

Residents enjoyed the furry visitors just as much as the other guests, some even bringing their dogs from home for a special photo.

To top it off, free Ice Kendy ice blocks were distributed to cool everyone own on the hot summer days.

Paul and Annabelle, residents of Arcare Glenhaven, held stalls of their own!

Paul sold his paintings of beautiful landscapes and scenery.

Annabelle sold a range of gorgeous, sparkling bracelets she crafts in her spare time.

Residents had a ball exploring the markets, doing their Christmas shopping and meeting others in the local community.

This was a great opportunity for neighbours to visit Arcare, some even touring the residence.

The fantastic feedback from the residents, families and community has everyone hoping that the markets return some time in 2019.
