2026 EVENT PARTNERS

Bazaar was launched with the goal of connecting artists to art buyers, underscoring the importance of supporting small, local, businesses and catalyzing the creative economy. Most items are priced at $100 or less, which is explicitly intended to be accessible to as many people as possible.


What is Bazaar?

Bazaar is a marketplace for artists, artisans, and craftspeople to sell work and build relationships with people who care about where the art and goods they buy come from. In 2025, 140 Vendors sold $200,000 worth of art and handmade goods and approximately 23,000 people attended the event. Bazaar takes place outdoors each summer on Main Ave. in the heart of downtown Spokane. #weallbuildthis #howbazaar

FLASHBACK TO THE FIRST BAZAAR in 2014:

Art patronage in our town is 36% of the national average. This is a huge problem for a city trying to create a culture of creativity and innovation. After a year of talking to artists and patrons (and non-patrons), we started thinking that we have a chicken/egg problem: Galleries struggle here because patronage is low. People feel uncomfortable around art because they've never spent much time around art or artists ... you know, in galleries. We wondered what would happen if we created an atmosphere where everyone would feel comfortable, where there was a ton of art (and craft) at people's fingertips, and a majority of it was inexpensive enough to be attainable to lots of different folks. So we dropped a 50-vendor art market onto a street in Spokane's retail heart on one of the sunniest weekends of the year. This is what happened.
