Offering Local Makers a Platform to Shine
A unique retail concept combining the charm of a winter market with the curation of a gallery gift shop, all under one roof. Cultural venues with a bestselling item, and local creatives producing anything from knitwear and paintings to jewellery and one-of-a-kind crafts, are encouraged to get involved, whether with a single standout piece or a limited-edition run. Makers simply supply their priced, ready-to-sell goods along with a description and price list, and the Light + Flight team handles rest.
For shoppers, Light + Flight offers something different. Visitors will be able to browse a carefully curated mix of local treasures under one roof, from handcrafted homeware and jewellery to art and one-off finds from the borough's cultural institutions, all in a warm, welcoming setting designed to feel more like discovery than a typical retail trip. With a single, easy point of sale for the whole shop, customers can pick up gifts from dozens of independent makers in one visit, knowing that every purchase directly supports a local creative or organisation. It's a chance to shop small, shop local, and find something genuinely unique.
