Handmade Holiday Market
Every December, we like to encourage our community to shop local and support our talented hometown artists and crafters during the holidays. This pop-up market is the perfect space to buy handmade works of art as holiday gifts. If you're interested in becoming a seller in our market, check back here in October for more information.
Other Activities
As we emerge from pandemic hibernation, we are looking forward to once again working with artists of all cultures and mediums as well as building strong partnerships with local businesses that have similar values and missions. If you have recommendations for artists you'd like to see in Pierre and Ft. Pierre, we'd like to hear your ideas. As new opportunities arise, we will update you via our new email list.
