This market started as a Fine Art Fair over 40 years ago and

evolved into an Arts and Crafts Fair in the 80’s until now,

over the past few years we have begun experimenting with

antique and vintage vendors, observing trends and watching

and listening to the interests of our customers. Decorating

trends and consumer interests are continually changing and

we need to keep up with the changing market. Therefore,

Bates is going to be encouraging and inviting those with up-

cycled, recycled, vintage and antique vendors to join in our

annual markets along with our crafters and artists. Customers

are looking for recycled, restored, vintage, antique, and made

in the USA vendors. Come and join us and share your love

of crafting, collecting and gifting others. Please join us in

creating an event we can be proud of to share with our

customers. Like always this will be a juried market and we

will be looking how your merchandise is displayed.

The market coincides with the Heartbeat Classic Chevy Car

Show on Sunday, April 24th. A great combination of fun for

women, men and families of all ages to come and see the

products you are selling. In addition we will feature our Spring

Food Truck Festival on Saturday, April 23rd. No parking or

admission. 10X15 spaces. $100.00 for a booth.
