Last year's inaugural Makers Market was an overwhelming success. The event exceeded expectations with quality vendors, outstanding attendance and tremendous community partnership throughout St. Louis County. The Market is a one day outdoor juried art and craft fair held in Sunset Hills, Missouri, set in the popular Watson Trail Park. By inviting a variety of seasoned and emerging artists we are dedicated to delivering an enjoyable experience to all participants and patrons alike.
Our mission is to expose the community to a diverse showing of art, craft and unique hand-made specialty items.
There will be 50-75 exhibit slots available and we are looking for a diverse group of artisans, crafters and makers of all mediums and price points. Along with exhibitors selling their handmade items, there will be live music, food trucks and a family corner with demos.
Marketing:
Extensive marketing is in place including digital, print and community based grass roots efforts. New addition this year will be billboards.
- "Thanks so much for making the first "Sunset Hills Makers Market" such a terrific success! From the moment I pulled in, my tent was set up, volunteers were there to help with set-up, and throughout the day, checked back with us to make sure we were all okay. When the winds came,
they even put tarps up!!! YOU name it, we had it!!"
- "The shuttle, signs, check-in, gift bags and pre-show info were all very helpful to make the market run smoothly for the artists. And, what an impressive selection of talented artists and a good variety of arts and crafts! I was very happy with my sales for the day."
- "Thank you so much for all of your hard work. The event was well organized, effectively advertised, and had lots of positive energy from both artists and volunteers. I'm looking forward to next year."
