August Arts & Abundance
 this week! 
Saturday
August 13th, 2016
9am to 1pm
Hello Market Shoppers!

Yes, it will be hot tomorrow, but the shade and breeze under the bridge make it feel much cooler! We have a great lineup of food and arts tomorrow, plus fantastic music by Sandy Pluta and Blue Moon from 10am to 1pm. 

We hope you'll notice the art installation along the trail right in the heart of the market.  It is part of the InsideOut project in which the Philadelphia Art Museum has placed high quality reproductions of items in their collection in locations around town.  The market is honored to be on the map! We will have maps showing all of the locations at our market table and there are also free tours.  You can get info about the tours and an app for a self-guided tour here


Our own artists are bringing beautiful and functional pieces that complement the farm fresh food at the market.  Be sure to take a look at their works.


See you at the Market!
