Bags On Show

If you’re into bags, the Sarina Arts and Crafts Centre is the place to be.

The centre is featuring its large range of bags and purses, all handcrafted locally by its talented crafters.

“We’re proud of our crafters and the skill and devotion they all put into their work,” centre manager Jenny Costello said.

“And our prices and quality stand up well against the imported goods you can buy in the shops.”

The centre is a non-profit cooperative run totally by volunteers in heritage buildings at Sarina’s Field of Dreams Parkland and is open 9-1 Monday to Saturday.

It also opens on Sundays when the Sarina Showgrounds markets are on.
