"Buy Local" At The Riverside Arts & Crafts Market

Each Saturday at Riverside Arts & Crafts Market residents will find original art and unique craft items designed and created by local entrepreneurs. Purchasing these one-of-a-kind treasures offers another way that residents can "buy local" and ensure that their dollars return to the local economy. Vendors vary week-to-week, so customers may see new items weekly. Some artisans also offer special order items. This week customers may select from original acrylic and oil paintings and abstract geometric prints, dichroic fused glass jewelry that twinkles with reflected light, stained glass and ceramic creations, photographs of historic regional train stations, and charming hand-crafted fabric bears that can entertain a little one or be the start of a collection. To see recent photos, visit Riverside Market's Facebook page.

Riverside Arts & Crafts Market is an outdoor market held from 9-2 each Saturday (weather- permitting) in downtown Salisbury on the river at W. Main and Lake St. near Chesapeake East, Yum Café and Brew River. Driving from the Farmer's Market or Park & Flea, take Main Street through the Downtown Plaza and across the drawbridge. Follow the signs. Parking nearby.

The Market is a project of the Salisbury Arts & Entertainment District Committee. Artists interested in participating as vendors must apply in advance by contacting riversidearts1@gmail.com.


Hope to see you this Saturday!
