Circular ArtSpace hosts fourth edition of Community Artists’ Fair
Situated in a converted double-decker bus behind The Crafty Egg café, the Circular ArtSpace main gallery will already be familiar to many residents of Fishponds.
Many local artists and creatives have been able to showcase their work on the silver bus in recent years, and since Circular ArtSpace operates as a non-profit CIC, it takes no commission on any pieces that are sold.
The organisation is also behind the Community Artists’ Fair, which is returning to the Vassall Community Hub for its fourth edition on June 27.

The lively arts and crafts market promises to be a celebration of “local creativity, community and sustainability” – featuring original artworks, handmade crafts, illustrations, prints, zines, textiles, accessories and jewellery.
New to the event this time around is a dedicated Kids Area, offering storytelling, face painting and drawing activities.
“The Community Artists’ Fair exists because local creative communities deserve to be seen and supported”, says Guglielmo Ardizzone, project manager at Circular ArtSpace.
“We want Fishponds to be a place where artists and makers can connect directly with the people who live here — and where everyone, regardless of budget, can find something that moves them.”
