多謝支持2015年6月份「JCCAC手作市集」
夏日炎炎，驕陽似火，但也比不上6月20及21日，2015年第二季「JCCAC手作市集」舉行的週末，各位手作人和藝文支持者的熱情和興致！
主辦單位賽馬會創意藝術中心（下稱JCCAC）首次試驗將攤檔擴展至中心較高樓層的一些共用空間，除了讓市集原本區域的擠迫情況得以疏導和改善，新增的空間亦讓多15%的手作人有機會擺檔參加，為更多具潛質的新晉提供機會；其實這次市集就有近五成手作人／品牌是首次參加的生力軍，當中還包括一些通過非牟利社區團體參與的社群。
近期手作文化發展蓬勃，也多得手作人的踴躍支持，每季「JCCAC手作市集」的申請都超額數倍，反應熱烈。但場地有限難免向隅者眾，希望他們不要氣餒，在近期如雨後春筍的市集活動中，亦能找到其他合適的選擇和機會一展身手。而售賣手作的網上平台最近亦百花齊放；不少手作人在參加市集之餘，亦會透過各類網上平台（例如Pinkoi、Etsy、淘寶等）開設自家品牌的網店售賣作品。不過相信人與人之間近距離交流和分享的喜悅，還是要親身體驗手作市集才能感受到的。
作為一所致力推廣文化藝術，自負盈虧的非牟利機構，JCCAC在有限資源下暫只會維持每季一次舉辦「JCCAC手作市集」。其實JCCAC提供創意平台，支持手作文化的自然和有機的發展，只是其活動之一。不少公眾在參觀「JCCAC手作市集」之餘，亦同時參加了主辦單位舉辦的其他文創節目（例如工作室導賞團，及天台舉行的免費市集、自由表演舞台、星空下的露天電影和映後座談等），在JCCAC親切的環境中度過了一個快樂、充實又滿載藝文氣息的週末。
2015年另外兩次「JCCAC手作市集」舉行日期為：

關於JCCAC
JCCAC全名「賽馬會創意藝術中心」，於2008年開幕，以自負盈虧及非牟利機構的模式運作，是一間多元化及對外開放的藝術村兼藝術中心，提供一個給藝術家和藝術團體工作，和讓公眾可近距離接觸藝術的環境。作為藝術村，JCCAC是近140個各類型藝術家和藝術團體的運作基地，當中以視覺藝術為主，也有表演藝術和其他應用藝術。作為藝術中心，JCCAC內有茶藝館、咖啡室、創意工藝店等，另有特色小型展覽分佈各樓層空間，以及正規場地「賽馬會黑盒劇場」和兩層「藝廊」展覽廳。JCCAC成立目的為提供文化藝術創作空間（藝術工作室和展示場地），以協助培育創意人才和推廣創意文化，為支持香港的文化藝術發展出一分力。有關最新節目資料請瀏覽： www.jccac.org.hk
關於「JCCAC手作市集」
JCCAC每季舉辦一次市集，希望提供一個親切的分享和交流平台，讓手作人有機會互相切磋和直接與公眾溝通，從而激發創意靈感和提升水平。亦希望公眾透過與手作人近距離接觸和交流的機會，有助大家增進欣賞、了解和支持香港的原創發展。市集期間JCCAC會舉行其他文創活動（例如露天電影欣賞和座談會、工作室導賞團、天台免費市集、自由表演舞台等）。而個別藝術工作室會自行向公眾開放，舉辦展覽、示範、工作坊等（當中亦可能包括銷售活動，但所銷售之藝術品／物品屬有關藝術工作室的獨立安排。）
Thank you for supporting the June 2015 “JCCAC Handicraft Fair”
Even the flaming sun and the summer heat are no deterrents to the enthusiastic participants of the JCCAC Handicraft Fair over the weekend of 20 and 21 June 2015.
It was the first time that JCCAC piloted extending the Fair to certain communal spaces on the upper floors of JCCAC. It killed two birds with one stone, by improving the overcrowded condition at the lower floor locations and increasing the number of available stalls by 15% to accommodate more aspiring artisans; in fact, new participants (including a number of NGOs serving the less privileged) accounted for around half of all participants at the Fair in June.
Thanks to the handicraft community’s staunch support and the popularity of the event among the public, the number of applications received for each Fair is overwhelming. Due to limited space, many applicants had to be disappointed, but hopefully they should not have problem finding other suitable choices and opportunities to flex their muscles in the current flourishing bazaar scene. In fact, many handicraft artisans are also setting up virtual stores online through platforms like Pinkoi, Etsy and Taobao. Nonetheless, the human touch of sharing ideas and building relationships face to face is a unique joy that perhaps remains to be experienced only in person at the handicraft fair.
As a self-financed, non-profit organisation promoting arts and culture within limited resources, JCCAC will continue to organise the “JCCAC Handicraft Fair” around once every quarter. In fact, the Fair which provides a creative platform to support the natural development of handcraft culture is just one among JCCAC’s programmes. Hence during the Fair, visitors also had the opportunity to enjoy other arts and culture programmes organised by JCCAC (including guided tour of arts studios, plus programmes on the roof terrace like the alternative free market, free stage, open air movie under the stars and post-screening talk) and experienced a joyful and fulfilling weekend in a relaxed environment.
Two more weekends of JCCAC Handicraft Fairs are scheduled in 2015:

About JCCAC Handicraft Fair
Organised quarterly by JCCAC, the Fair provides a competitive platform for handcraft artisans to sell their works, understand the market and find inspiration for their creativity. It is also an opportunity for the public to meet handcraft artisans and appreciate their passion and effort, thus helping to support creative development in Hong Kong. Various arts and cultural programmes (including movie screening on the roof terrace, guided tour of open studios, an alternative free market, a free stage, etc.) are organised by JCCAC during the Fair. Also, some arts studios are open to the public with independently organised programmes (exhibitions, demonstrations, workshops, etc.) and sales activities (of artworks and other items independently arranged by the arts studio itself, which do not form part of the official Fair selections).
