The event, which runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, invites visitors to explore a curated indoor marketplace featuring more than 50 talented artisans.

This isn't your average craft fair. Shoppers can expect to find a wide array of high-quality, handcrafted goods, making it the perfect place to find a unique gift. Featured items will include handmade jewelry, pottery, custom woodworking, original art, small-batch skincare, gourmet treats, and more.

While browsing, visitors can enjoy seasonal bites and beverages from Constellation Culinary Group, available in the Auditorium—perfect for refueling while supporting local artists.

The market is just one part of a full-day experience. The event is included with general admission to Grounds For Sculpture (and is free for members), inviting guests to stroll the 42-acre park to see the stunning, large-scale sculptures and explore the indoor art galleries.

For a truly memorable capstone to the day, visitors can make reservations at Rat's Restaurant, the park's unique eatery that feels like a village cafe from a Monet painting.
