Nantucket Maria Mitchell Association Hosts Inaugural Makers Market
NANTUCKET, MA – As a tribute to Maria Mitchell’s fearless drive and entrepreneurial spirit, evident in her noteworthy discovery and world-renowned work, the Maria Mitchell Association (MMA) is launching our inaugural Makers Market to celebrate our Nantucket community’s creatives who may not have presence in retail establishments. The Makers Market will be held at the MMA’s 33 Washington Street property on Friday, August 9th from 9am to 4pm.
If you are creative and have a product, business, or craft to promote and sell, please join us at our festive open-air market. Makers include Nantucket crafters, creative artists, authors, designers, pet suppliers, food and beverage producers, gadget makers, window box makers, and more. And, if you want to support the island’s creators while enjoying a beautifully curated shopping experience, please come by 33 Washington Street and shop ‘til you drop!
To participate as a vendor, please contact events@mariamitchell.org for further details.
The Maria Mitchell Association is a private non-profit organization. Founded in 1902, the MMA works to preserve the legacy of Nantucket native astronomer, naturalist, librarian, and educator, Maria Mitchell. The Maria Mitchell Association operates two observatories, a natural science museum, an aquarium, a research center, and preserves the historic birthplace of Maria Mitchell. A wide variety of science and history-related programming is offered throughout the year for people of all ages.
