Why Markets?

Our markets concept combines the vibrant energy of live performances with the eclectic offerings of outdoor markets, creating an immersive experience that captivates both art enthusiasts and market-goers alike. The Seed Theatre vendor markets are more than just a marketplace – it's a community celebration where creativity blossoms.

Browse through an array of stalls curated with care, offering handmade crafts, vintage finds, artisanal goods, and unique treasures. From intricately crafted jewelry to one-of-a-kind artworks, our vendors bring a diverse range of products that reflect the richness of the local creative scene.

The heartbeat of Seed Theatre is, of course, the stage. Nestled amidst the market stalls, it becomes a focal point for live performances, transforming the market into a dynamic space where artists, musicians, and drag performers showcase their talents. Picture a local band serenading the crowd, a theatrical performance unfolding under the open sky, or a spontaneous street dance captivating onlookers.

As you explore the market, you'll find opportunities to engage with the performers, share stories with the artisans, and connect with like-minded individuals who appreciate the fusion of arts and culture. Seed Theatre believes in creating an inclusive space where the boundaries between the stage and the stalls blur, inviting everyone to become a part of the creative tapestry.

Our open-air vendor markets are not just about buying and selling; they're about cultivating a sense of community, fostering local talent, and providing a platform for artistic expression. Join us at Seed Theatre, where every market is a unique performance, and every performance is a celebration of the vibrant tapestry of creativity that defines our community.

What people say about it

Odd Market is the best! The vendors are a community of artisans that want to expand their families. I look forward to our "reunions" every few months. The customers are always so kind and happy that we offer such a variety of unique items.
