~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FAQ – – CAN I BRING MY DOG TO FALL FEST?We ask that you leave your furry friends at home during Fall Fest. We get quite busy, and it can get a little hectic when dogs are added into the mix. You are welcome to stop in with your dog during regular business hours (when we do not have special events) for some cute photo ops while you shop – Tuesdays-Sundays 9am-6pm. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

New Makers Market Mission: to foster a community of young creatives in order to help fuel their gifts and talents in addition to helping create a sustainable climate for working artists. They do this through a combination of fundraisers, classes, and events geared towards empowering our youth to own their creativity and talents.
Have you heard about the super cool kids craft area at the art market? Yeah…its super fun for all ages, projects to make, and different ways to be creative. The kids that have come and visited the market LOVE to walk away with something they made and are often inspired by all the young artists they come to see.
Mark your calendars for September 28, 2024, and head over to Bronkberry Farms with your friends and family and come make something cool! Each year we showcase a new project…what will it be this year?
