Up next: we are back on the waterfront in Grand Haven ONE LAST TIME (I know… we’ve said that before, but this is really it).

Saturday, July 11th from 9 AM – 4 PM, come downtown Grand Haven and shop with 100+ local makers along the beautiful riverfront.

This is a free community event filled with handmade goods, small businesses, and the best of West Michigan creativity.

Food Trucks:
Papás Tacos and More
NEKO Taiyaki
Outlaw Roasted Corn
Ruby’s Acai and Coffee
Sanders Mobile

Live Music:
9:00 – 12:30 Kevin Kozel and Scott Pellegrom
12:30 – 4:00 Audrey Pearson

Spend the day by the water, support local makers, enjoy great food and music, and soak up summer on the Lakeshore.

We can’t wait to see you. Shop local.

There are rare market days that feel perfect. Beautiful weather☀️, fantastic location (BIG shoutout to 🦦), unbelievable vendors, delicious food trucks and a wonderful soundtrack by and 🎶 (that is the amazing Nathan Walton - recorded at the zoo during the market - on this reel!) and a KILLER turnout. You all just kept rolling in.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING LOCAL!

See you next up at Chinook Pier in Grand Haven on July 11th!
