Inaugurated in 2008, the “Tap Siac Craft Market” has been a platform for local and overseas cultural and creative practitioners to showcase and sell their products, and has gradually become a local brand of cultural and creative market. On the occasion of the 10thanniversary of the “Tap Siac Craft Market”, IC launched the “10th Anniversary Programme” to celebrate with residents and called for proposals of a series of programmes, such as “stage performances” and “workshops”, which were well received from the public. IC is now processing the selection of entries in each category . The result of the selection will be announced on IC website and the Macao Cultural and Creative Industries Website.
Stall registration is free and can be made on behalf of a group or individually. If the number of eligible applications exceeds the original allocated quota, stall operation time will be assigned by drawing lots. Application forms are now available at the reception of the Cultural Affairs Bureau Building, located at the Tap Siac Square, Macao, or can be downloaded at IC’s website (www.icm.gov.mo) and the Macao Cultural and Creative Industries Website (www.macaucci.gov.mo).
