Squidinki
Max Mendez and Kerry Findley are a globetrotting couple who’ve worked for design agencies in England, Spain, America, Singapore and Australia. Not long ago they decided to follow their passions in illustration and design, leave the corporate world and start their own business. The result is Squidinki - a brand that uses everyday products as canvases for Max’s whimsical, humorous hand drawn illustration. Their shop in The Rocks has quickly become a local favourite, selling everything from fine art prints to illustrated tea towels and keep cups.

Art Aid
Art Aid are a Sydney art pop up selling limited edition works from a selection of the world’s most forward thinking artists such as David Meggs, Billy Zammit, E.L.K, Justine McAllister and more.
Not only do they support local artists - they also support good causes all over the world. One third of all profits from the pop up go toward one of 12 worthy charities including the Asylum Seekers Centre and Doctors Without Borders.
