Calling All Creators! 
Do you make it, bake it, design it, sew it, pour it, paint it, or craft it? We want YOU at our Winter Market! 
We're seeking talented local vendors offering handmade clothing, candles, holiday décor, artwork, jewelry, gifts, specialty treats, and more. 
We're also opening our doors to Mini Makers because big creativity comes in small packages! Young entrepreneurs are invited to showcase and sell their unique creations alongside our talented local vendors.
