About this market
Set amongst the ancient stringybark forest of historic Emu Plains Reserve, this monthly market brings together over 240 talented artisans in a festival-like celebration of art, food, design and culture. Created by passionate locals Joel and Vanessa Johnson in 2012, EPM has become one of the Mornington Peninsula's favourite outdoor destinations, offering a diverse snaking trail of makers and creators in the laid-back coastal village of Balnarring. The market celebrates both local Peninsula talent and makers from beyond, creating a unique community gathering place where visitors can truly get lost in wonder.
