It’s October again which means, among other things, that it is time for Marigold Market!
Marigold Market has been held on the third weekend of October every year since 2010. Originally designed and created by Rosemarie Stadnyk, a well-known artist, Marigold Market has always been about “hand-made” art or crafts. Since Rosemarie is a retired art teacher and an artist all of her adult life, hand-made and self-created works of all kinds are close to her heart.
Marigold Market hosts a two-day venue for hand-made items from knitting to honey, from painting to pottery and much more. Skilled artisans, who have honed their art for many years, make all items themselves. We are pleased to offer around 25 vendors for your pleasure with free admission. We just ask that you consider filling out an entry form at the door as we do enjoy treating some winners to a few door prizes.
The Creative Kids Committee, who raises money to assist children in affording various art, dance, drama or music, runs our canteen. They will offer homemade food for your palette. All proceeds go to help their organization. The coffee they will sell is donated by Bogarts Bay, which is hand-roasted in Birch Lake.
Marigold Market is on Friday, Oct 20 from 1 to 7 p.m. and on Saturday, Oct. 21 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the beautiful Chapel Gallery, 891-99th St., North Battleford.
Admission is free!
