Oxford Maker's Market this Saturday!

The Oxford Maker's Market is an art market based in Oxford, Mississippi. It occurs every 1st and 3rd Saturdays, at The Lyric Oxford, although this market will be located in front of Skipwith Cottage, on the square. The Maker's Market is committed to local and underexposed talent. We showcase different artists, musicians and a variety of media at each event. Check out our website for photos from our past events: www.oxfordmakersmarket.com.


Our next market is June 19th. This market is part of the Rhythm Revival fundraiser for the Oxford Medical Ministries. The OMM sponsors a clinic which provides medical care for individuals who are employed but do not have health care.


The festival during the day is from 10AM-3pm then it moves into the
bars at night with a wide variety of great music.


Booth space is limited and free of charge, however a donation to the Oxford Medical Ministries would be appreciated but not mandatory.


Booth size is 6’ but if you plan on using a tent, booth space can be expanded to 10’ x 10’. Please let me know if your items will require more space than a 6ft table.


Requirements to sell: - Set up is at 9:00am for the market, though we are not technically open until 10am. All spaces for sellers will be located facing Skipwith Cottage and will be assigned upon confirmation of selling. Bring your own table, table cloth, chairs, and tents if you are using one. Most artists bring 6 ft tables that collapse and are easy to carry. Card tables also work well. Sellers must bring their own cash to make change for sales. There are ample ATMS within walking distance of the Oxford square. - Mississippi sales tax .07% must be submitted to David Molina before end of market.


If you would like to sell at this market, you must contact me by Friday with your name, a brief description of what you will be selling, and contact info. This will be used in assigning booth space as it is limited to about 10 artists and will be first confirmed first served.
