2026 Makers Market

Calvary Church is pleased to announce our 5th annual Maker's Market - Join us in celebrating our local maker economy! October 10, 2026 Why a Makers Market? It’s simple: things made by hand are meant to be experienced by hand. No technology can replace the one-to-one contact with the artist behind the masterpiece or replicate a tactile encounter with a macramé plant hanger or handmade piece of jewelry. The value for both the maker and the customer is obvious…we make connections with the maker and with each other to share ideas, provide support, and hang out with friends. We’re inviting you to connect with makers, friends, and family at Calvary’s fifth Makers Market. Come enjoy food trucks and more. Upon entry, the first 500 attendees will receive a reusable shopping tote to carry all their purchased treasures. What can be sold?
