KAMERS Johannesburg Autumn 2015

WORDS Michaela Stehr PHOTOS Charl du Preez STYLING Nicky Myburgh


The KAMERS pop-up market is back in full craft force for its 2015 autumn instalment.

What began in 2003 as a small project has grown into one of the largest pop-up events in South Africa.

“The original name was Kamers vol geskenke [Rooms filled with gifts], the concept being that a house with all its rooms became a retail space,” explains co-owner Magdel Kemp. “It was also a straight gift fair. As the concept changed into a lifestyle show, we changed the trading name to KAMERS.”

With a passion for supporting and providing a platform for creative entrepreneurs, KAMERS is now a showcase for 250 hand-picked exhibitors of food, wine, jewellery, clothing, art, accessories, ceramics, crafts and more. The team is constantly on the lookout for fresh ideas and exhibitors to expand their artistic reach.

KAMERS 2015 Johannesburg will run from 23 – 27 April at St John’s College, St David Road, Houghton.

Opening times are from 9am until 5pm (Thursday, Sunday and Monday) and from 9am until 7pm (Friday and Saturday).

Entrance fee is R70 at the gate (R50 for students and pensioners) and R50 if you buy a ticket online at ffw.co.za.
