The Makers Exchange is more than a market - it’s a gathering dedicated to supporting REAL ART AND HANDMADE WORK and the amazing people behind it. No AI generated anything. No 3D printed mass produced junk. No Temu resellers.

Please join us this June for a *very* thoughtfully curated outdoor market celebrating independent makers and small businesses. Every vendor has been intentionally selected to bring something special. From fine art and handcrafted goods to unique pieces you won’t find anywhere else. This is a space to connect with the artists behind the work, hear their stories, and discover something that feels meant for you.

You’ll be able to shop incredible work from artists like @shoppeofstuff, @endurvinnaa, @lunarforgedmaille, @toxic.moxie, @emberpinesco, @lil_momochi, @rudeplatesct, @bonealchemist, @uniques.curiosities, @ghostofthewoodsart (and so many more) whose pieces are featured on our flyer - and that’s just a glimpse of what’s in store!!!

We’re also so excited to have The Caffeine Coven (@thecaffeinecoven) on-site serving up their delicious, handcrafted drinks, plus the Craft Bird food truck bringing amazing eats so you can make an afternoon of it. 💁🏻‍♀️

Come wander, sip something yummy, grab a bite, and support small in a way that truly matters. Every purchase goes directly back into an artist’s hands, and that kind of exchange is powerful 🥹❤️

We can’t wait to see you there!!!
