The Market returns with holiday gifts

Local residents can give back to the community while shopping this holiday season. The Junior League of Birmingham’s annual three-day shopping extravaganza, The Market, will be held on Thursday, Nov. 14 through Saturday, Nov. 17 at the Cahaba Grand Conference Center located off of U.S. Highway 280.

The Market provides a venue for shoppers to purchase unique items that cannot regularly be found in the greater Birmingham area.

New to The Market this year is MADE in the deep south, a one-of-a-kind jewelry line created by Birmingham native Michela Bruno Swafford. The line was developed deconstructing antique jewelry pieces by the pieces mixing them with rustic leather and other vintage pieces.

Also new this year, Santa and Mrs. Claus will be special guests at The Market on Nov. 17 from 9-11 a.m. Children under 12 years of age are admitted free to The Market.

The funds raised through The Market support the Junior League of Birmingham’s 35 community projects.   

Tickets to The Market are $12 for general admission or $24 for a three-day Must Have Pass. The Sneak Peek Party is $36 and Martie & The Market is $24. Groups of 10 or more may purchase General Admission tickets to The Market for $10 per ticket. This offer is not valid on JLB quota tickets.

All events are open to the public. Strollers are welcome Thursday and Friday after 2 p.m. and all day Saturday.
