The Merchants and Makers ArtPrize Market is taking place ALL THREE Saturdays of ArtPrize! This is our 4th year collaborating with ArtPrize, and our second year RIGHT downtown in the middle of it all. We are in Rosa Parks Circle, along Monroe Center, and on Ottawa Ave! The roads are closed, and we are on the street for a fun STREET MARKET!
Live music all day all over the market.
Drinks available as part of the Downtown Refreshment Area! https://refreshments.downtowngr.org
This is a FREE Community Event. Get out and enjoy ArtPrize!
