Lowe Mill Outdoor Market

Every Saturday from spring through fall, Lowe Mill transforms its sprawling grounds into a bustling outdoor marketplace where local vendors gather to share everything from handcrafted goods to vintage finds and fresh-from-the-farm produce. This weekly tradition brings together makers, growers, and treasure hunters in an open-air setting that's perfect for families who enjoy browsing at a leisurely pace. Kids can explore while parents discover unique items you won't find at typical retail stores, making it an outing that appeals to all ages. The market runs from 11 AM to 4 PM every Saturday between April 4 and October 24, 2026, on the Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment grounds. Admission is free, though you'll want to bring cash or cards for purchases from individual vendors. Since this is an outdoor event, it's weather-dependent, so check Lowe Mill's website or social media before heading out on iffy days. Pack sunscreen and hats for sunny afternoons, and consider bringing a wagon or stroller if you have younger children who might tire from walking. The market atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, with plenty of space for kids to roam safely while you chat with vendors. It's also a great opportunity to combine market browsing with a visit to the art studios inside Lowe Mill, making it easy to fill an entire Saturday afternoon with creative exploration.
