Riverside Arts Market




Wow! For those of you who haven't ventured downtown on Saturday mornings, you are really missing a treat!
Only held from 10am-1pm on Saturdays from April through December, the Arts Market has the atmosphere of the bigger markets in other cities. Complete with all kinds of interesting handmade art, an eclectic blend of food vendors, all kinds of produce, street performers and live music, this makes for a great saturday!



My mom, niece Krista and myself was surprised when we got there and it was very well attended! The arts and crafts were all very nice - both the beautiful and the kitchky! On top of all that, is was UNDER the bridge, so you have lots of shade and a nice breeze wafting off the St. Johns River. Bring cash and an appetite - seafood, pastries, roasted corn-on-the-cob, barbecue and more to satisfy anyone's palate.



This venue is very pet friendly!
Lots of doggies on leases, with many
booths to accommodate them!
Pet supplies, pet baked goods, pet beds -
you name it, Fido is loved at the Arts Market!

Do yourself an arts favor and try out the Arts Market some Saturday morning real soon! And don't forget to bring your appetite for pretty, funky things and delish food!!!
