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?
