October 1st Indie Market


Dare I say it... I think Fall has finally arrived. YAY!!! I hope I don't jinx it by saying that, but we couldn't be more excited about the cooler weather. It's been a long HOT summer... year really, since the heat rolled in during the April Market, and we can't thank our vendors and fans/customers enough for sticking in out so we could continue holding the Indie Market. Hopefully the cooler weather will bring out more folks who end up walking away with more of our handcrafted goodies. =)

Now on to the October Market info...

We'd like to thank our own Kim Shoffner for creating such a great poster for us! It's a little different from the norm, but still absolutely fabulous and in total Indie Market style. We're still needing some help getting the posters up, so if you'd like to hang a few in your neck of the woods, give us a shout at firstfridaymarkets@gmail.com. Between Mandy and I, we should be able to meet you somewhere convenient.

Our band this month will be the one... the only... Crystal Bright & The Silver Hands, performing from 7pm - 9pm. They have their own wonderful, quirky style and we are absolutely thrilled to have them perform at the Market. Taken from one of their websites - They are "A roller coaster of experimental, multicultural, ghostly carnival folk." To preview their music and find out more information about the band, you can visit ReverbNation, Facebook, or their Website.
