Court of Love - Valentine's Show
 
Court of Love - Valentine's Show Court of love 2004 Court of love 2005
Every February Fabrications is transformed into a luscious haven containing quality selected; unique love tokens for you to purchase and express the depths of your heart felt emotions.
These have ranged from beautiful handmade lingerie by Buttress + Snatch, bedding by Kate Storer to the amusing ‘F*** You You F******* F***’ screen prints by Jody Boenhert.
Of course here at Fabrications we believe that heart felt emotions can also be expressed outside of Valentine’s Day, so we hold a regular stock of quality love tokens all year around.
Hidden Art + Christmas
Hidden Art + ChristmasEvery year Fabrications takes part in the annual open studios event ‘Hidden Art’ organised by Mazorca Projects (see Links) To coincide with this and also Christmas, Fabrications invites all the artists and designers, who have shown during the year to submit work for a Christmas show. The result is an Aladdin’s cave of quality handmade, design led, unique gifts. Thanks to a bursary from Hidden Art and support from the BMTRA (Broadway Market Traders and Residents Association) 2004 saw the first Friday ‘Late Night’ Shopping in the form of a life sized Monopoly board Map ar Hidden Art + Christmas ound which visitors could enjoy the wealth of items available in the shops and studios on and around Broadway Market, revel in free food and wine tastings, take in films on an outdoor screen, visit the Santa’s Grotto (with free lucky gift bags courtesy of Woolworths) and relax in the fine eateries and public houses. Hope to see you out on Broadway this Festive season!
