Saturdays in 2025 for as long as the weather lasts!


This Summer of 2024, members of the public are invited to enjoy the entertaining spectacle of a skilled portrait artist at work.

Tasmanian-based portrait artist Joshua Lamb is setting up his Parisian-inspired portrait sketching market arrangement in the Salamanca Arts Centre courtyard. Based on his own studies in the portrait markets of Montmartre in Paris, Joshua’s flair for capturing charming and delightful likenesses makes for a uniquely entertaining experience.

“I want to bring  Montmartre to Hobart”.

Portrait sittings are generally around half an hour each. Timed to coincide with the world-famous and thriving Salamanca Markets, the portrait sketching is an enjoyable attraction, enhancing the experience for all enjoying some refuge in the gentle and delightful surrounds of the Salamanca Arts Centre courtyard.

And who knows, for a small fee you may be enticed to sit for your own keepsake heirloom portrait!
