Fall and Holiday Shopping at Seek Bespoke Market
Autumn brings the crisp air and bright pops of colour amidst our often drizzly days, but it also means the return of Squamish's much-loved Seek Bespoke Market!
On from November 8th through the 10th (that's THREE days of shopping!), this wonderfully curated selection of unique handmade goods and amazing items such as ceramics, art, slow fashion, one-of-a-kind jewelry, vintage, apothecary, and artisan foods and beverages is always a sure bet for holiday shopping and a little off-season retail therapy.
Held in the beautiful and inspiring setting of the Railway Museum of BC, shoppers can immerse themselves in the spirit of the holiday season and embrace the creative energy flowing through the market.
This market attracts mindful shoppers who share the commitment to consume locally and support the economy. An evolving vision from longtime Squamish event producer Shannon Lorenz, she understands how rising costs could effect how shoppers are approaching shopping this holiday season. Seek Bespoke Market is considerate of this shift and will offer a curated selection of quality, small-scale, and locally-made items that allow customers to make the most of their spending while finding unique and special gifts.
