Press Release – New Mexico Artisan Market Returns | February, 2019

The New Mexico Multi-Cultural Foundation (NMMCF) is pleased to announce a call for artisans to participate in the New Mexico Artisan Market, a boutique shopping event showcasing the state’s most talented artisans and makers. The first-ever New Mexico Artisan Market held over Thanksgiving weekend 2018 exceeded expectations of producers  and artisans alike. Producers conservatively estimated an expected attendance of 3,000 guests for the inaugural market. Nearly 7k visitors attended during the three days. Individual artisans reported that sales from the market greatly exceeded their expectations all three days of the event. The artisan’s combined merchandise sales of the market exceeded $700,000.

 

One of the best shows I’ve been to in a long time. Exhibitors were carefully chosen. Having exhibited at shows in New Mexico for almost 20 years, I always know about 90% of exhibitors. I am happy to say that I knew about 3% of exhibitors at this show. Well done!
