Visitors will have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with the artists about their work while enjoying the market's lively atmosphere and supporting the local economy.

The market fosters student professional development and peer-to-peer networking, and provides funding for need-based student scholarships.

Vendors will accept the following forms of payment: Visa, MasterCard, cash, and check. Admission to the market is free.
