European Market ~ Treasures Under The Big Tent

A 2-day Europen-style event spotlighting 50 artisans & gatherers of art, vintage furnishings, handcrafted jewelery, fashion, decorative gifts and an array of gourmet foods. ALL under ONE LARGE tent. Anyone with an eye for the eclectic and unique will not want to miss this market on Sept. 22 & 23, 2012. There is no better place to set up a large tent then Milton Avenue in the Historic District of downtown Alpharetta. The city is closing down Milton Ave. between Main St. & Roswell/Canton St. to be home to the European Market for 2 days only. There is nothing like the vibe that is created by all these wonderful artisans & gatherers under one large tent. You truly feel like you have entered a bizarre in a foreign land. It's what separates us from the rest of the festivals in the metropolitan area. Styles of yesteryear updated for the 21st century and this collection of artisans and gatherers have mixed old and new to create wonderful treasures for your home and for yourself.Admission and parking is free, pets are welcome! Sept. 22, 11AM-6PM. Sept. 23, 11AM-5PM.
