🛍️🎨 Milwaukee Makers Market – A Handcrafted Experience

The Milwaukee Makers Market is finally back with warmer weather! ☀️ This market showcases a variety of local “makers” and artisans, featuring everything from handmade candles and jewelry to delicious homemade treats 🕯️💍🍫. Not every Milwaukee Makers Market is the same—the location, vendors, and activities change depending on which one you attend! This time, I visited one at The Ivy House, where they offered specials on Bloody Marys and mimosas 🍹. I picked up a pair of seashell earrings 🐚, a brownie, and some hair clips—all so cute! The event itself is free to enter 🆓. Prices vary by vendor, but most accept cash, card, and mobile payments like Venmo and PayPal. How long should you plan to spend there? It’s hard to say—each market differs in size and number of stalls. I’d recommend going with friends and having a follow-up plan… just in case you finish faster than expected! 😉 The markets rotate among three main locations: Discovery World Museum, The Ivy House, and AmFam Field 🏟️. They also occasionally host pop-ups, so keep an eye on their website or social media for updates ℹ️. The organization also has a permanent spot called Milwaukee Makers Marketplace with limited hours, featuring many of the same local artists. Drop by if you get the chance—and don’t forget to check their official page for dates, times, and locations! 📅📍 #MakersMarket #LocalArtisans #CraftFair #ShopLocal #Wisconsin #Milwaukee #TravelWI #USATravel #Handmade #ArtisanMarket #ExploreAmerica #TravelDiaries
