Spring Art Star Craft Bazaar at Cherry Street Pier

May 9 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm

Families are welcome to enjoy free admission and bring their leashed pets along for the fun! The event is held at Cherry Street Pier, which is covered and protected from the elements, making it a guaranteed rain or shine experience. Vendors will be set up indoors, with an outdoor seating area and large windows that open up on a nice day.

The first 75 families each day will receive a free event tote, given out at 11am and again at 3pm. Browse 80+ curated craft vendors, enjoy Make + Takes by Project Joy Studio and Second State Press, and try Fabiola Lara’s Mini Print Vending Machine for just $1 in quarters per print. Grab a bite from Philly Taco, Irv’s Ice Cream, and Tokio Sushi Truck, or stop by the full cash bar for a drink while shopping.
