“So many makers in Maine make more than one thing which makes for a really diverse market,” explains Christa Zuber, producer of the Rockland Makers Market. The Rockland Makers Market at the harbor started in June and continues once a month through September. Each market is unique with different makers attending. You will always find something new at each market! Future dates this summer are Saturday, Aug. 17 and Saturday, Sept. 7.
In addition to the Rockland Makers Market at the Harbor, you can find a selection of makers from the Rockland Makers Market at the Sunday Strolls on Main Street on the third Sunday of each month through October from 12-4 p.m.
Admission to the Rockland Makers Market and Sunday Strolls is free and open to all. For more information go to rocklandmakers.me/ or facebook.com/RocklandMakersMarket.
