Dallas venue offers space for makers market

Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden offers residents and visitors alike an opportunity to enjoy a taste of the forest in the heart of the city, and it will be hosting a local market this summer.

The venue’s Main Entry Plaza will be providing space for artisan Kella Carlton, who will be offering visitors to the site an opportunity to browse through and purchase an assortment of handmade items. According to the event listing, they may be helpful in building a yard that is welcoming to feathered friends, and admission is included with entry to the venue.

The market will feature an assortment of materials ranging from teapot birdhouses and teacup feeders to colorful bird baths that are both decorative and functional. Vendor demonstrations will take place throughout the days when the pop-up market is open, and anyone who needs gift wrapping and shipping service will be able to access them.

By providing space to local artists and makers, an institution can help to support a city’s artistic community. Flyer printing offers an option for marketing an event that may be both economical and effective.

The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden has scheduled dates for this pop-up that start this month and continue into September. June 18 and 19 are the opportunities, from 11:00 am until 3:00 pm on each day. A full agenda is available on the Arboretum’s website.
