The San Antonio Museum of Art (SAMA) is excited to announce the launch of Museum Market, a monthly market kicking off Saturday, June 12, 2021. Produced in partnership with the Southtown Market Co., the Museum Market will feature a variety of products from local artists, designers, collectors, bakers, and other local makers. The market will be an ongoing effort held on SAMA’s campus in the Sculpture Garden the second Saturday of each month and will operate from 10a.m. to 3p.m. (San Antonio Museum of Art, 2021)

The goal of the Museum Market is to continue to connect the downtown San Antonio and Museum Reach communities with local makers from the Alamo City while supporting small businesses and encouraging market-goers to shop local. Confirmed vendors for the first SAMA Saturday Museum Market include:

• Beesweetology – Local honey
• Trinity – Pop art and jewelry
• Be Kind Rewind – Unisex vintage clothing
• Republic Bakery – Baked goods
• Hazel Laine Studio – Pop art apparel
• Relyt.co – Health and beauty goods
• La Familia Lorenzo – Fine art

• Trinket Armor – Gold plated jewelry and hats

“We’ve had great success with our holiday market and we’re delighted to extend it to a year-round market. Our campus has always been a place for our community to get together, and we hope that the market will bring new people to our campus. It’s a great way to enjoy the neighborhood and to spend the day on the Museum Reach.” – Emily Sano, the San Antonio Museum of Art Co-Interim Director.

The Museum Market will offer seasonal items and a rotation of new and ongoing vendors each month. For more information on SAMA’s monthly market, visit SAMA’s website. To apply to participate in the market as a vendor, contact Southtown Market.
