"Bringing a unique and festive shopping "village" to the heart of Downtown DC, the Noon to 8pm market features more than 180 regional artisans, crafters and boutique businesses of ethnically produced goods.

Hundreds of diverse gift items, such as jewelry, pottery, paintings, and textiles will be offered by 60 exhibitors each day. Check back as the exhibitors rotate and the selection of goods will vary daily. You're sure to find something special for everyone on your list.
