The Friday Morning Market, sponsored by the Treasure Island & Madeira Beach Chamber of Commerce, enters its eleventh season on December 7 with a variety of crafts, produce, art, collectibles, foods, jewelry and live music. Vendor applications are now being accepted.
The Friday Morning Market is open from 9 a.m. till 2 p.m. on Fridays from December 7, 2018, through April 26, 2019, at the Treasure Island Community Center Park, 154 – 106th Avenue. Parking is free for this outdoor market.
Entertainer Frank “The Geezer” Hewlett returns to surround the crowd with music that spans the generations. Fresh produce, locally sourced honey, and a variety of preserves are available, too, and make this venue a popular farmers market for area residents.
Chamber Board member Vito Musante has managed our Friday Morning Market since its inception, and says he is pleased with the growth and popularity the market has achieved over the years. More than 50 vendors are expected to fill the park, and many of them are veterans of past years’ successes.
“We are so appreciative of the vendors who bring their wares to this market every year,” says Chamber president Missy H. Hahn, “and we’re equally grateful for the support the market receives from our residents, and the visitors who make it a point to shop at our open air market while they’re on vacation. It’s a great place to find customized gifts, one-of-a-kind wearable art, and fresh, tasty produce and prepared foods.”
Vendors should plan to provide their own tables, tents, and chairs, and can begin setting up at 7:15 a.m. each Friday. Vendors must be on site no later than 8:30 a.m., and stay until the end of each market day at 2:00 p.m.
