A few days ago I blogged about the Riverside Arts Market opening and told you it was something not to miss.  A lot of people thought the same thing.

Check out this story about the grand opening, and if you missed last weekend’s opening, go by this week and experience the market.  I’ll be looking for you.

Historic Grand Opening. Tomorrow.

April 3rd, 2009 | No Comments | Posted in Great place, third space

The Riverside Arts Market has a lot going for it. It has a super location near the Northside Riverwalk downtown and permanent shade, thanks to the Fuller Warren Bridge with a football field of covered area. It has the vision of Wayne Wood, the Riverside-Avondale historian who has a track record for imagining and completing first-class projects, and it will operate under the umbrella of Riverside Avondale Preservation, one of Jacksonville’s oldest and most successful neighborhood groups.

It will be a huge boost to our city in many areas:

Arts: Booths for artists of all kinds.Farmers market: Booths for farmers, growers and food vendors. Products are locally grown or created and go through a review process. For people who want to buy locally made products, here is your chance. Live entertainment: Bookings have already been made through the summer; there will be special programs for children. Free parking & water taxi service.

Grand openings only happen once.  You need to be at this one.
