A festive affair.

Canvas, clay pottery and painted T-shirts, it's all going on at the ARTE craft market For unique Christmas presents that you won't find anywhere else, swing by the ARTE winter market at Times Square Centre this weekend. This fun two-day market offers completely original and handmade arts, crafts and designs, all created by artists, cooks and other creative souls living in the UAE. Find Christmas hampers, Christmas cakes, birthday cakes and many more mouthwatering treats. There is even something for the fussiest person at this fair. Choose from silver jewellery designs, beautiful paintings on canvas, clay pottery, mosaic treasures, glass painting, ceramics, handmade greeting cards and snug scarves made of silk and sheep's wool. For the kids there's a stall where they can paint on a T-shirt, as well as learn how to decorate biscuits. Also check out the paper and scrapbook design stall sponsored by Mr Ben's Fancy Dress Closet, Creative Hands Scrapbooking store, Elves and Fairies Craft supplies and Kazim Stationery Trading. In support of Feline Friends, who have plenty of kittens and cats looking for homes this Christmas, there is a secondhand book stall selling great reads, with all proceeds going directly to the charity. Other charities represented at the winter market include the Al Ishan Back to School programme, the Dhaka project, Braille without borders and Foresight. The ARTE winter market takes place on December 12-13 at Times Square Centre (off Sheikh Zayed Road) from 12pm-7pm. For more information visit www.arte.ae
