Three supporters at a recent Frome street market (thanks to the organisers for this image).
These offer sustainable design products, vintage fashion, furniture for the home and garden, as well as local and regional food and drink producers.
Foreground, a local not-for-profit arts organisation which launched the market in 2013, says the event attracts 80,000 people a year and generates £2.5m in revenue for the traders and the town. The website is certainly a masterclass in how to successfully market and sustain an event like this, the next of which is on Sunday, November 5.
