Tips & Advice

  • Bring cash or your checkbook, because the market accepts only cash or check for purchases.
  • Shop here for gifts you won't find in stores, since every item must be handmade or the artist's original design.
  • Artists should apply by October 30, 2026, and expect to hear by November 4 whether they were selected.
  • Visit on a Saturday if weekday afternoons are hard, since the market opens earlier on Saturdays than Tuesday through Friday.
