Makers Market @ MMofA

Mobile Museum of Art is currently seeking a sponsor for the Makers Markets, a semiannual event. What started as a humble market in 2014 has grown into an exciting event that’s the talk of the town today.

When we originally came up with this program, we wanted to find a way to bring the talented artists and artisans of our community together so they could sell their wares. In the past decade, we’ve been able to celebrate creativity, our community, and local entrepreneurship. Not only is this a great opportunity for small businesses to flex their craft, but it also acts as a great exposure for these artists.

Makers Market has grown to become one of MMofA’s most dynamic and well-attended events. Each of the last two markets has brought together nearly 800 people from across our region… and, we’re gearing up for to do even more!

The next market is
Saturday, December 9, 2023 from 2 to 5 pm.

Not only will we have local artisans at the Makers Market, but we’ll also offer a variety of food trucks to choose from, live music from a local artist, hands-on art activities inspired by what is currently on view at MMofA, and free admission all day.

We need your help! Become a sponsor today!
