The Alliance for the Arts has reimagined its community market experience with the launch of the Alliance Morning Artisan Market, a new monthly event held on the third Saturday of each month from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The shift moves the Alliance’s former Wednesday night market to a vibrant Saturday morning gathering designed to bring families, artists, and the community together for a full day of creativity and connection.
The Alliance Morning Market takes place on the Alliance’s 10-acre campus at 10091 McGregor Blvd. The market will feature a curated mix of artisans and vendors, local artists, and live entertainment, creating a welcoming, festival-style atmosphere for all ages.
By moving the market to Saturdays, the Alliance is aligning it with two popular free programs already offered on campus: Free Family ArtLabs, held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., and Reel Families, Free Family Movie Screenings, beginning at noon. Together, these programs create a seamless day of activities centered on creativity, community, and family-friendly fun.
“The Alliance Morning Market allows us to bring together so many of the things our community loves, local artists, creative experiences for kids, live entertainment, and time spent together,” said Alliance representative and organizer, Cat Flo. “It’s more than a market; it’s a full morning and afternoon of connection.”
Admission to the Alliance Morning Market and all accompanying activities is free. While gallery admission is always free, a $5 suggested donation helps support the Alliance’s mission to keep arts programming accessible and affordable.
