Mini Maker Market

Mini Maker Market is our kids-only market that coincides with Art on the Street, an annual juried art show in downtown Guelph where grown up Artists showcase and sell their work.

We feel it is entirely appropriate that artists and makers, who happen to be children, have the same opportunity. In our opinion, this is the cutest feel good event in Guelph and we are so happy to be able to offer it again this year!

Children aged 4+ (with a grown up) are welcome to display their art, sell their handmade wares or provide a service! We provide the booths and cash registers. Please bring a foldable chair. Children may share a booth with a sibling or friend.

The Mini Maker Market is set up under the big shady trees at IODE Fountain Park, across from the main branch of the Guelph Public Library. Washroom access is at the library and Children's Art Factory.
