We are thrilled to announce that the Junction City Main Street Market grand opening is this Saturday, May 6th! Our Market will take place every Saturday, from May through October, on the corner of W 8th and N. Jefferson, right across from the Junction City Fire Department. What makes our market unique, is that we will have the Market and micro-events every week to encourage you to explore the downtown area and the community offerings that Junction City has. Check out our website to explore the various themes every week and bring the whole family downtown to the market.

To kick things off with a bang, May 6th, promises to be a fun-filled day with a full lineup of vendors, non-profits, and events. We have an amazing variety of vendors from local and surrounding communities, showcasing their wares. You’ll find everything from fresh produce to handmade crafts, including vendors like A&H Farms, The Cake Artist, Tiny T, Sues Shop, Crafted by Joanna, and Inclined 3d who are our season-long vendors. With 19 farmers/crafters to choose from on May 6th, there’s something for everyone at the Main Street Market. Come out and support your small businesses shopping at the market, you might be surprised at what you discover!

In addition to vendors, we have several non-profits joining us every week to share information about their organizations and what they offer for the community. On May 6th, be sure to stop to chat with  Childcare Aware, Civil Air Patrol,  Konza Prairie Community Health Center, and Pawnee Mental Health. We are also super excited to have the Dorothy Bramlage Public Library joining us to kick off their summer reading program!

Lastly, don’t forget to check out the International Food Tour, where local vendors will be serving up delicious foods from around the world. Passports will be available for purchase, $10 for adults and $5 for kids, which will get you a sampling from each of the vendors. Some vendors will also offer food for purchase aside from the samples.

We can’t wait to see you at the Junction City Main Street Market this Saturday!
