Museum of Mobile Opens First Saturdays Art Market

Mar 16th, 2007

The Museum of Mobile and The Coastal Artisans are putting on The Southern Market’s First Saturdays Art Market, an outdoor fine art show & market that will take place the first Saturdays of March, April, May, and June.

The objective of the market is to benefit and enrich art, culture, and tourism in the City of Mobile, while at the same time providing self-representing working artists with a quality local event where they can show and sell their work.

Invited artists will present an eclectic mix of quality original artwork in a variety of mediums, including painting, folk art, pottery, jewelry, fiber, sculpture, etc.

The site chosen for the event is right in the heart of Mobile's historic downtown district, in the green space on Royal Street between Government and Church, right across from the Museum of Mobile located at 111 Royal Street, and the Gulf Coast Exploreum.

Admission is free.
