About this event
Skip the mall and shop small this holiday season! Shopping for gifts and goodies around Over the Rhine is truly an experience that’s like no other. Check out all of the markets coming to Washington Park this winter and grab your bags! November 28th | Crafty Super Market at Music Hall December 5th & 6th | The City Flea: Holiday Market December 12th & 19th | Artisanfest513’s Grinchmas Cincinnati **Please note that these are third party markets, not organized by Washington Park. Vendor inquires and questions should be directed to the organizers.
Who's playing
The lineup is the makers. The juried show features artists from all over North America, including fine artists, jewelers, woodworkers and clothing designers. Some vendors apply every year and return as crowd favorites, while newer artists get a first chance to sell. Crafty Supermarket began in 2009 and has grown into one of the region's biggest independent shopping events.
What to expect
Expect a large ballroom floor lined with booths and plenty of browsing. Past holiday editions have brought a live DJ, hands-on craft activities and local food, and the day centers on meeting the people who made each piece. The historic ballroom gives the market a grander setting than most craft fairs.
Why go
The draw is shopping small, buying directly from the people who made the goods instead of at the mall. Music Hall is a National Historic Landmark completed in 1878, so the building is part of the trip. Washington Park sits right across Elm Street, and its lawn and water features make an easy stroll afterward.
