About this market
Bernie's Artisan Market is a relaxed community market run by the Macleay Island Progress Association on the third Saturday of each month (excluding January and December). Set on the Southern Moreton Bay island of Macleay, it showcases a variety of locally produced goods - handmade crafts, hand-crafted wares, and home-grown produce from island and nearby makers. The journey itself is part of the charm: hop on a short ferry from Redland Bay marina and arrive at one of the region's most distinctively located markets. In November the market shifts to a twilight format running 3-7pm, with the bar open for beer and wine - a popular seasonal highlight for islanders and visitors alike.
