Make it a memorable Memorial Day weekend with a visit to the Carpinteria Valley Historical Society and History Museum’s outdoor fundraiser, The Marketplace, scheduled for Saturday, May 27, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the museum grounds at 956 Maple Ave. in downtown Carpinteria.
Known for its variety of vendors and their unique offerings, which includes handcrafted gifts, specialty foods, toys, antiques, furniture, jewelry, clothing, plants, musical instruments, household items including quilts, kitchenware, and chinaware, and tons more — the Marketplace has something for everybody. Prices at Granny’s Attic, the booth operated by the museum, start at 25 cents.
Janet Rutland, owner of Silverquest, offers a curated collection of sterling silver jewelry from around the world, but mainly from artists in Mexico. She and her husband Mickey will be at booth #6. “We have searched for jewelry in the most interesting places! We have unique styles and something for everyone! I am also located at The Vintage Nest in Fillmore,” suggests Rutland. “Please support this beautiful work.” For more information, email janet@silverquestia.com, call 805-727-0322, or visit @silverquestia.
Hot dogs, cold beverages, and snacks will be available for purchase, and as always admission is free to the Marketplace. Musical entertainment includes Mavis Hansen and the Ukulele Jammers.
