About the artist
Ellen McKenna is a pattern designer and artist from Melbourne. Ellen loves to create abstract, seamless repeat patterns and canvas artworks that focus on colour and movement. Her aesthetic is inspired and shaped by multidisciplinary design elements from the early to mid-20th century, as well as her lifelong study and love of the arts. A graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts, Ellen wants to inspire her local community to rediscover their local op shops through her hand-painted clothes, showing that second-hand clothing and accessories can be both beautiful and useful.

Relationships with your father come in all shapes and sizes. The spectrum goes from unconditional love to the hardship parental estrangement. Father’s Day can be a day of happiness or a day of sadness.
One activity we can suggest, no matter what your relationship with your father, is a visit to Camberwell Sunday Market – as a fun filled adventure or, as the case maybe, a bit of therapy.
The good thing about browsing the market with you dad is that conversation comes easily, but is not often needed. Sometimes just walking through the stalls you see things that make people say “remember that?”
Often it’s the times when words are unspoken that are precious, but discovering an old style family biscuit barrel, nicknack, or forgotten ornament from the family home can often be enough for a few spoken words and a flood of memories from decades gone by.
And then there’s those who have lost their parents, their Dad. It’s hard. Browsing the market with siblings or other family members can have a cathartic effect. “Remember Dad had an old tool box like that?” Again. Good memories can coming flooding back. A smell of grease mixed with petrol or thinners, if your Dad loved the garage.
Some of those memories may even be of the market. As we approach our 50th anniversary, that means that three or more generations of Melbournian families may have attended the market.
So as you enjoy the market this weekend, think not only of the millions of dollars raised from community projects or the millions of items recycled, reused or repurposed… think also of your Dad and the relationships built and strengthen by community that is Cambered Sunday Market.
Happy Father’s Day.
Flowers anyone? Camberwell Junction is a live with flowers, especially on Sunday mornings but also during the week.
You can find various flowers on Sunday; be they fresh from the market, dried flowers, paintings, knitted or other handcrafted flowers.
Giving flowers is a time honoured act. It can a to show gratitude, appreciation, respect, love and can often be used in significant religious or cultural events.
The ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians all enjoyed the beauty of flowers to decorate their homes, celebrate festivals and other important occasions, rituals and often symbolised purity and devotion.
So why not show an ancient act devotion or gratitude this Sunday by sharing some fresh flowers with someone you appreciate?
You will find fresh flowers in the top north western corner of the market and near the central walkway in the centre market.
