Winter Market at the Rivet
The Winter Market at The Rivet is back again this year! Get a jump on your holiday shopping at this two-day celebration of all things handmade, local and one-of-a-kind. There will be food trucks, hands-on exhibits, a customization station and a maker booth. 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.

Enjoy the final weekend of summer with good food, music, wine and art. Whether you are looking for a work of art, jewelry or handcrafted housewares, these local artists have something for you. There will be four food trucks on hand and live music courtesy of three local bands. Parking and entry are free.
