2021 is the year for holidays markets and events in Buffalo. It seems as if holiday fever is spreading far and wide, and everyone is jumping onboard with the cheerful (and very local oriented) gift-giving movement.
In previous years, WNY Book Arts Center has held a weekend-long holiday marketplace. The event has been so well-received that this year, the organization has decided to host an event series throughout the entire month of December (on Thursdays and Saturdays).
Shop a collection of 20+ artist pop ups over the month of December.
This year’s Last Minute Panic Holiday Marketplace series will feature a litany of “artist market happy hours,” accompanied by some of the city’s most beloved vendors, including Community Beer Works and Tipico Coffee.
For anyone looking for a more enriching gift for a friend or a loved one, this market is the perfect opportunity to pick up handmade goods, such as housewares, knitwear, jewelry, hand-printed greeting cards and posters, and other artist made gifts. Visitors can also explore the Book Arts Shop, as well as the various galleries and studios. Participating Artisan Vendors are as follows:
