Organized by Hometown Vendor Market, the event will run Saturday, Nov. 14, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday, Nov. 15, from noon to 6 p.m., at the Riverchase Galleria in Birmingham, Alabama.
Local makers and families welcome
Designed as a family‑friendly outing, the market showcases independent businesses and artisans from across the state. Visitors can browse a wide array of offerings, including handcrafted jewelry, seasonal décor, fashion pieces, original artwork, and wellness products such as natural soaps and aromatherapy items. Food and drink vendors will also be on hand, providing sweet treats, coffee, and other refreshments to keep shoppers energized.
For many families, the market provides a convenient way to get a head start on holiday gift‑giving while supporting Alabama’s small‑business community. The emphasis on locally made, one‑of‑a‑kind items aligns with the community’s desire to keep money circulating within the region and to celebrate the creativity of home‑grown talent.
