New Denver Friday Market

12/05/2025

Quite a few of our artisans, farmers and food folk will be at the Silverton Holiday Market this Saturday. Don't miss this fabulous local market!

Exactly a week away! This much anticipated annual event has been happening in Silverton since 1995 ( originally the Silverton Christmas Faire). This has always been about celebrating our local artists and makers. We value the importance of supporting and preserving traditional artisan skills. When you support handmade you are also supporting the ability of these artisans to continue growing and preserving these skills in our communities.

We will have some wonderful local bakers with seasonal baking and food available to eat in or take home.

Also check out the fabulous family owned just across the street for espresso drinks, food, antiques, local crafts and a great atmosphere.

We look forward to seeing you all in the beautiful village of Silverton next Saturday December 6th.

Tomorrow is the last market of the season. It has been an amazing summer with just enough rain to keep the fires away. So many smiling faces just so happy to be right where we are. We have so much to be grateful for.

Jeff and Caroline who so graciously offer their space to the community every Friday from June to September.
Our amazing market manager Paula for all that she does to make this market such a special event.
The musicians who share their music with us and help to create a beautiful ambience under the maple trees on a summer day.
Our board of directors who keep our market in good standing with all the behind the scenes stuff that has to be done to keep things running.
Our vendors who show up every week with their wares and their laughter and support for each other.
And you for coming out in all weather to support us.
We are grateful to all of you. What a community we have!

For so many of us market season is one of the highlights of our year. It is so much more than a great place to shop for fresh local farm produce and handcrafted wares. Our market is also the place where friends meet up and where visitors can connect with our community. Every Friday the folks from the Pavilion stop by to enjoy the market vibes and to listen to the tunes of local and visiting musicians. The sounds of people chatting, laughing and sharing together in this beautiful space on a summer day are a sweet reminder of what it is to be part of a community.

We are pleased to welcome another new local vendor. Audrey Steenhof creates a variety of beautifully crafted wood and crocheted items with something for everyone.

Market hours for Friday, August 8th are 9.30 am to 1.30pm.
See you there!
