9 More Days Til the May Market



Wow! Time sure has flown this month. I can't believe we're already in the countdown until the May Market. 9 more days and it'll be here!!!

We have plenty in store for all of the folks who grace us with their welcomed presence. =) We have some awesome new vendors for you this month, as well as some of your Indie Market favorites. We even have a Caricature Artist coming out... a first for the Market. We're totally excited about all of the wonderful and talented vendors we have, so please be sure to come out and show them your support.

Our local musicians for this month are:

Serendipity The eclectic Jazz/Folk duo of Alison Perkins & Jeremy Wood. They will be playing from 5:30pm - 7:00pm.

Rob Disner from TV Yellow An Indie Rock group who's members are Rob Disner, Kevin Cox, Ron Moore & Curt Meinhold. You'll remember Rob as the singer/guitarist from last months market. He (or they) will play from 7:00pm - 9:00pm.


If you would like to help us get posters up and pass out cards, please contact us at firstfridaymarkets@gmail.com. They're at the printer now and should be ready by the end of the week. Mandy and I cover the downtown Greensboro area pretty well, but if we can get some volunteers to put them up in other locations around Greensboro, Kernersville, Burlington, High Point, Browns Summit, etc. we would really appreciate it.

If you're on our Vendor Mailing List, you'll be receiving the June Vendor Application by email around the 1st of May. If you're just too excited about participating and can't wait that long, the App is already up here on the blog. Just click on the Vendor Application tab at the top of the page.

We'll see ya next week!

A Few of our Many Pics from the April Market

Thank you!

Chris and I want to thank each and every one of our vendors for helping us make the April Market a huge success! We hope each of you were just as successful individually as we were as a whole. Everything about Friday night was awesome and we couldn't be more pleased. We also need to thank the crowd - turnout totally blew us away, especially since it was a holiday weekend. We knew it would be good, but it really surpassed our expectations.

We're already working on the planning for the May market! If you haven't filled out an application to be a vendor, please do it asap. The application deadline for the May 7th market is April 15th (tax day - you can't forget!). If you've already filled out an application, you can just submit your payment and send us an e-mail to FirstFridayMarkets@gmail.com and let us know you want to participate.

We hope May is even bigger than April - and hopefully a little bit cooler! See you then!
