An artist's network needs to be more than an expensive early morning fried breakfast from the Holiday Inn and a talk about the tax implications of Jaffa Cakes.
If you crave being productive, active and creative then join us and evolve our network:

Market Sale!
Thanks to the support of London Community Response Fund, YAYmates have been selling members' work comission - free on their behalf in Romford Market and at local cultural events, including film festivals and craft markets.
Look out for selling opportunities in our facebook group, and support our local creatives by coming along to supporting events.
See you there!
We also have an online market on this website with items for sale. Again, the items are locally made and this is a comission free selling platform. If you are looking for a gift, why not buy one from us?
