Brattleboro Flea

It all starts TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY!!!

Holiday shopping at box stores? NOT the move. The real flex this holiday season is getting REAL SMALL, when you can of course. Small is the theme of the season- Brattleboro welcomes the 1st ever Festival of Miniatures to town this December. Nearly every storefront and window will feature a scene that all about minis- tiny steam engines, elaborate dollhouses or terrariums. And in true mini fashion, it's only fitting that you keep your dollars local by making a statement with your wallet! Support a local maker or artists and you not only support a small business, you keep that spend within our community! And that, is important, now more than ever. Get small, in the best way.

The Market on Main, at 74 Main Street (formerly the Sam's Outdoor Outfitters space) will feature more than 60 vendors over the first three weekends in December. We're decking the halls with evergreens and twinkle lights, the iconic "sock room" of Sam's yesteryear returns thanks to Darn Tough and Burrows Sports, and the windows will once again be lit with that one of a kind Brattleboro razzle-dazzle.

Artists & Makers- Weekend 1 & 2 are completely full but we do have room for a few more on weekend 3. Go to Brattleboro.com and fill out the enrollment form if you'd like to apply or learn more.
