May 10 Market Sponsors

Generous local sponsors are pivotal to our ability to increase accessibility by supporting a sliding scale tabling fees, fund marketing and promotion (60-75% of our funds go toward this), support venue costs, feed our volunteers, and provide a small stipend to the market managers. We are committed to continuing to co-create a space for BIPOC & 2SLGBTQIA+ makers to come together, support each other, and forge connections and community across many years.
