City Market Arts showcases local vendors

More than 35 vendors from Charlottesville showcased their locally-made products at Carver Recreation Center during the City Market Arts Show on Saturday.

The showcase featured a variety of jewelry, paintings, pottery, and more all made in town.

Justin McKenzie, manager of City Market Arts, said the market gives local business owners a chance to showcase their products.

“We’re here to support those people that really have a great idea and want to get started,” said McKenzie. “This offers them a great opportunity to get in front of the public and get real feedback about their product before they go to a bigger market.”

Another City Market Arts Show will be held on March 2 at Carver Recreation Center.

The event is free and open to the public.
