Our fundamental mission is to support local artists and makers from within our region. That’s why every MerseyMade creative is based within fifty miles of the Liverpool (L1) postcode. When you shop with us, you know you’re supporting a local artist, maker, illustrator, or jeweller whilst never compromising on quality or craftsmanship.
MerseyMade currently showcases work from over 70 independent creatives and with that number growing, we can’t wait to see what the future holds for all of our talented artists.
We understand the importance of community which is why people are at the heart of everything we do. MerseyMade is built on a foundation of inclusivity as we aim to provide a space where people are free to express their individuality and feel empowered to inspire one another.
We want everyone who enters our doors to feel part of the MerseyMade family, whether you’re a fellow artist, maker, art lover or customer we want to provide a warm, informative environment where you can enjoy looking around and learning more about what we have to offer.
Our founder Vicky Gawith conceived the idea of MerseyMade many years before making her dream a reality, and the dream was finally realised when she opened the flagship Liverpool shop in 2019. Vicky’s background in project management combined with a resilience to push the concept through (despite all the obstacles that came her way) has stood her in good stead to continue to develop the business and support more and more of the local creative community.
MerseyMade’s mission since first opening in Liverpool city centre in 2019 has been to support the local artist cummunity by providing them with a permanent, physical space to sell their work. As of May 2024 MerseyMade Liverpool is closed whilst we look for a new premises, but we are open 7 days per week in the coastal town of West Kirby.
