City of Greater Bendigo, Media Release, 4 March 2024
The Lost Trades Fair is a fantastic celebration of craftsmanship, ancient arts, heritage crafts, rare trades and knowledge passed down through generations.
Come along to the Bendigo Racecourse this weekend, March 9 and 10, and see the tools, traditions, techniques and trade secrets on show. Artisans from across Australia and overseas will travel to Bendigo to share what they do over this fantastic weekend of creativity.
Meet the makers, watch feature demonstrations, there are things for ‘little tradies’, live music to entertain and great local food to enjoy.
The Lost Trades Fair aims to inspire, educate and open our minds to think about sustainability and the longevity of what we buy and use, and to show what people can do with practice, passion, hard work and knowledge.
