Thank you to our wonderful Market for a great year!
2024 was a great year for Manchester Makers Market and all our vendors. We supported many local makers with 23 vendors who live in Clay County. We also supported tourism to our county by hosting multiple vendors from 8 other counties.
15 from Laurel, 6 from Whitley and at least one vendor from Jackson, Perry, Leslie, Madison, Pulaski, and Bell counties. Many of these vendors are Clay County natives and loved having the opportunity to ‘come home’ for our events. With them, they brought their own following of supporters from other counties, to spend time and money in our beautiful county.
It is our goal to offer opportunities for our many talented makers to sell their works and demonstrate their talents, and it is also our goal to support tourism to Clay County by hosting vendors from surrounding counties. In the new year we will continue these goals by selecting handcrafted makers that offer unique products and rotating the duplicate vendors we have so our customers always get the best variety to choose from while giving everyone the chance to be included.
Thank you to Manchester Tourism Commission, vendors and shoppers for your continuing support. Happy Christmas! 🎄
