AURA QUE is not just about the finished products; its about the fair trade producers and their families that I work directly with, the constant challenges working in Nepal, as well as all the people I meet on my travels....

The Art Market with AURA QUE at the Festival of Light in Huddersfield

So the first week of December saw AURA QUE at the Art Market at the Huddersfield Art Gallery during the weekend Festival of Light.

It was such a fantastic event, with lots of great events around the town - including the Illuminated Light Garden, Aerial Ballet off the side of the Art Gallery building, and various entertainment and acrobatic shows at night!  It was great to see so many people down and around the town, braving the cold for the events!

We were a bit warmer in the Art Gallery for the weekend event - surrounded by such a great mix of local Yorkshire artists and designers (see pictures below of stands by Julia Ogden, Michelle Freemantle and Clare Lane)

It was such a great Christmas event to be part of, and great to see so many people there! Plus I had my first glass of festive mulled wine to start the season, before I had to fly back to Nepal for the next production and sampling session over Christmas and January.
