Artisan, Creator Market and Flea Market APE Wilson

The APE Wilson Market: Crafts and Flea Market in Saint-Maixent-l'École

Every year in May, the Parents' Association of Wilson school organizes an original event in Saint-Maixent-l'École: a market combining artisans, creators, and a private sellers' flea market. This event, held at the Allées vertes and Hall Denfert, attracts families and visitors in a warm and creative atmosphere, in the heart of this Deux-Sèvres sub-prefecture rich in remarkable architectural heritage.

A Double Event: Creation and Bargain Hunting

The originality of this event lies in bringing together two complementary worlds. On one side, local artisans and creators showcase their works: handmade jewelry, ceramics, decorative objects, textiles, gourmet products, and original creations. On the other, private individuals display toys, clothing, books, dishes, and everyday objects. The rate is set at €3 per table, by prior reservation.

An Event Supporting the School

All proceeds from the day are donated to APE Wilson, which funds school trips, educational equipment, and projects for students throughout the year. By participating as an exhibitor or visitor, everyone directly contributes to improving children's daily life.

Saint-Maixent-l'École, a Charming Setting
