It鈥檚 October again which means, among other things, that it is time for Marigold Market. The market will be held on the last weekend of October.
Originally designed and created by Rosemarie Stadnyk, a well-known local artist, Marigold Market has always been about 鈥渉and made鈥 art or crafts. Since Stadnyk 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 handcrafted items from knitting to honey, 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 24 vendors for your pleasure. Admission is free. We ask that you consider filling out an entry form at the door as we do enjoy treating some winners to door prizes.
The Creative Kids Committee, who raise money to assist children in affording various lessons or classes in the arts, runs our canteen. They will offer homemade food for your taste buds. 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 Saturday, Oct. 26 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday, Oct. 27 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the beautiful Chapel Gallery, 891-99th St., North Battleford.
Admission is free
