In the month of May, there are various interesting events suitable for families or individuals who are interested in leisure activities or gaining knowledge during their holidays. The 3rd Sacit Craft Fair 2023, an annual event, will be held under the concept of "Sustainspiration", a combination of Sustainability and Inspiration. It aims to highlight stories of environmental friendliness and transform them into works of "Inspiring Crafts towards Sustainability". The Sacit Craft Fair serves as a platform for artisans, craftsmen, artists, and members of the Thai handicraft community to showcase and promote their modern crafts, thereby creating a community for the exchange of ideas and enhancement of their careers. The fair also provides a marketplace for craft enthusiasts without the need to travel to production sources, effectively supporting and connecting community economies.
The event enhances the quality of life and contributes to the sustainable development of Thai handicrafts. The fair will be held in four 7-day sessions:
1st Session: May 10-16, 2023 at Central Plaza Grand Rama 9
2nd Session: June 22-28, 2023 at The Mall Tha Phra
3rd Session: July 4-10, 2023 at Central Plaza Grand Rama 9
4th Session: August 17-23, 2023 at The Mall Korat
The fair features over 180 shops selling modern craft products, including clothing, accessories, and home decor items with innovative and creative designs that are applicable for daily life. In addition, there will be promotional activities and sales incentives. For instance, with a purchase of at least 3,000 baht, customers will receive exclusive rewards such as a limited-edition cup from the Sacit Shop or discount coupons. Another activity is "Sacit Gives Away Free Accommodations". Customers who purchase products from the Sacit Shop worth at least 5,000 baht will be entered into a lucky draw at the end of the event. Furthermore, customers who bring their own shopping bags and present a receipt from the shops will receive a souvenir instantly.
