2009 Artist's Market

 Last year’s Artists’ Market was a huge success!  With the popularity of the event growing, the enthusiasm of the participating artists and the addition of children’s activities, the 2009 Artists’ Market should be the best yet!  Artist reservations are made on a first-come/first-served basis - reserve your spot today! 

Join us every Saturday in June, July and August from 8am to 2pm for the only Downtown craft market, a small, informal arts and crafts market that includes works from local artists, young artists, emerging adult artists and challenged artists. Artist registration varies weekly, so stop in each week to see new and different artists!  This is a rain or shine event.
