Milk Thieves Art & Design – need to know

Craft / Good Reviews / SOHI Calendar

Milk Thieves Art & Design is moving! The only store in central Wollongong that specialises in handmade and independent Australian design is moving to a more spacious store – with window frontage! Moving to shop 9, 157 Crown St; the grand re-opening of Milk Thieves is Tuesday 31st May, from 10am – 6pm. There will be giveaways, free sweet treaties and the first 20 customers to spend $30 or more will get a special Milk Thieves tote bag to carry their purchase.

The new store is easier to find, located just at the top of the stairs of 157 Crown St, in the mall (stairs located next to Flightcentre). The added space will allow Milk Thieves to stock more handmade goods and independently published craft, design and art magazines and zines.  “I’m really excited about the potential the new space has – it means I can extend my product ranges and even give customers lovely warm cups of tea while they’re browsing” store owner Emma-Lee Crane said.

The first feature artist for the store is the talented Caitlin Shearer.. Shearer paints sultry and fashionable ladies – sometimes dressed to the nines, other times lounging in the nude – but always beautiful. Caitlin’s work can be viewed and purchased at Milk Thieves until the end of August (sample images above). Additional work can be viewed at: http://www.caitlinquiet.blogspot.com/

Milk Thieves Art & Design is open Tuesday – Saturday from 10 am. For current opening hours and regular stock and news updates anybody can follow:
