The Market on 6th Ave - free admission, no ticket needed!

Come support local artists and handmade crafters at The Market on 6th Ave - and learn something new while you're at it! Our Learning Craft Fair features presentations and demonstrations from real local artists and crafters! With free craft tutorials, Q&A's, and artsy activities, this craft fair is fun and educational for friends of all ages!


The Market on 6th Ave takes place every 1st and 2nd Saturday May-Sept 2024 on the corner of State St and 6th Ave just outside of Salon di Stile at 2202 6th Ave Tacoma, WA from 10am-4pm.


We are holding a clothing drive for The Tacoma Rescue Mission! The Market on 6th Ave has partnered with a volunteer organization of sewists who mend clothing and then donate it directly to The Tacoma Rescue Mission's clothing closets so it can be made available to our neighbors experiencing homelessness. Please bring CLEAN, unwanted, and mendable (torn, missing buttons, holes) clothing to our clothing drive bin any Market Day.

My personal mission is to use my vast network and resources to showcase local artists and handcrafters, provide an affordable and effective venue for small businesses to flourish, and encourage healthy hobbies in my community. I host handmade craft fairs in Tacoma, WA and utilize my vending booth as a hub for arts education and learning resources. I also provide Mending-While-U-Wait services at my events to help people keep their clothing out of landfills.

I am thrilled to be a part of The Clothing Exchange, a group of volunteer sewists who mend and then donate previously unusable clothing to the Tacoma Rescue Mission. Please bring your clean and unwanted, holey, broken, or otherwise mend-able clothing to The Market on 6th Ave (1st and 2nd Saturdays May-Sept) Clothing Drive to be donated to the Tacoma Rescue Mission!
