THE Maleny Arts and Crafts Group (MACG) will once again bring crafty creativity to town with its annual handmade Autumn Fair, held at the Maleny Community Centre on Maple Street from Friday, May 2 – Monday, May 5 (Labour Day).
Opening hours are 9am–4pm from Friday to Sunday and 9am–2pm on Monday.
This much-loved event showcases an impressive range of high-quality, handcrafted items made by MACG members. Visitors can expect to find beautiful pottery, woodwork, glass creations, textiles, and fine arts—many crafted by artisans who have been refining their skills since the club’s formation in the 1970s. Each item is unique, making the fair an ideal place to find something special, especially with Mother’s Day just around the corner.
There’s free parking behind the Community Centre, toilets available inside, and a selection of excellent cafés and charming local shops just steps away to complete your day out.
