Refresh Market kicks off first two-day event of 2017 with 100 vendors, expanded food trucks, happy hour.

The Craft Council of British Columbia and Circle Craft Cooperative are pleased to announce their third annual free outdoor Summer Market, happening from July 23 to 26 in Downtown Vancouver.

For the first time ever, Etsy sellers across Canada will be hosting a one-day “Made in Canada” marketplace at 23 locations across the country, bringing together local Etsy sellers and communities in celebration of our country’s maker movement.

Over the years, the market has evolved to bigger venues, attracted more vendors and attendees, and has become a non-profit to better serve its mandate of supporting artists in the community. Founder Carlie Smith says, “Our biggest goal now is to really be there for artists and designers and the community. So we really want everyone to get more involved with the market.”
