Mill Street Marketplace

The Solstice Market is all about that late-summer feeling 😏 warm, a little chaotic, and full of really good finds. We’re bringing together a mix of artists, vintage curators, oddity artists, and small businesses that actually put time and care into what they make!
No AI, no reseller junk, no mass-produced nonsense!! Just real people making real things.
We’ll have tattooing happening during the event with flash designs available, plus the Taste Garden Cafe food truck and Caffeine Coven keeping everyone caffeinated per usual 😈
This is all happening at Mill Street Marketplace, which is home to 80+ permanent vendors inside, so there’s a ton to explore beyond the outdoor market as well. If you’ve never been, it’s basically a full day of wandering and finding things you didn’t know you needed.
Come hang out, take your time, and expect to leave with something good 😍

Back for round two!!
The Makers Exchange is exactly what it sounds like - a space centered around artists, makers, and small businesses sharing what they do best. It’s a curated mix of handmade goods, art, vintage, and unique pieces you’re not going to find scrolling online.
Every vendor is chosen with intention - no AI, no resellers. Just people who actually make or source what they’re selling.
Even if you plan on going to the June market, this one will have a completely different lineup of vendors, so it’s worth coming back through!!
We’ll also have tattooing available during the event being done by Yellow Pants Tattoo, along with the Craftbird food truck and Caffeine Coven on site 😍
The market takes place at Mill Street Marketplace, which has 80+ permanent indoor vendors, so there’s plenty to explore before, during, and after the event.
It’s a good one if you’re looking to support small businesses and find things that feel a little more personal!
