About this event

We are so excited to announce that our July Market Vendor Applications are OPEN until 6/15! 

We can’t wait to join together in queer & gender expansive JOY on Sunday, July 7th (Rain Date - Sunday, July 14th) at Washington Park (Knox Street Mall) from 11AM - 3PM! We will be extending the market to accommodate more vendors since we had over 1000 attendees in April 

Our Kids Tent Sponsor will be Tara from @refugetroy bringing her brainchild Creative Expression for Kids program to our market! We are SO thankful for Tara 

*NEW* We will be introducing formal fiscal sponsorship tiers for those who resonate with our market’s mission. These will be vetted sponsorships because we want to make sure those who pay to be a sponsor align with our mission. Stay tuned!

*NEW* We will be introducing a form for Community Area Vendors! This will be a FREE area for non-profit and local organizations who serve our community across the region. This form will be launched later this month!

*NEW* We are starting the process of developing a yearly fundraising campaign for the market that celebrates our vendors and our mission. This fundraising campaign will be a rainy day fund for outstanding market costs, scholarships for new vendors, kids tent costs, and other event costs that sometimes come out of our founder’s paycheck. We will be introducing merch designed by our some of our vendors that will be limited edition! Stay tuned<3

So, that’s all for now folks! MARK YOUR CALENDARS ABGM FAM<3 We are counting down the days for us to join together again
