The Winter Market

Hosted by Discovery Space and The Rivet, this two-day market is the perfect way for shoppers to kick off the holiday season. Visitors can expect to find one-of-a-kind handmade gifts for everyone on their list while supporting local artists, makers, and businesses.

The bow on top? ALL funds raised from this annual maker market — including experiential gifts purchased from Discovery Space and The Rivet — directly support our mission to bring STEM education and creative exploration to kids, families, makers, and explorers of all ages in the Centre Region.
