First Fridays Creator Market at Stanley Marketplace
- When
- Fri, Sep 4 · 6 to 9 PM
- Where
- Stanley Marketplace, Aurora
- Price
- Free
Most neighborhood maker nights top out around a dozen tables. Stanley Marketplace runs 45 booths, indoors, once a month, free to walk, which makes the east metro's first-Friday market closer in scale to a small fair than a lobby pop-up.
The September edition is Friday, September 4, 6 to 9 PM. Booths cover handmade jewelry, ceramics, woodwork, textiles and original art from local artists. The marketplace's own restaurants and bars stay open through the market, so food and drinks come from the hall rather than a truck line outside.
