Immerse yourself in a vibrant community of Portland creators at our city’s largest BIPOC marketplace, My People’s Market.
Started in November 2017, My People’s Market was created to help entrepreneurs of color to the travel industry and professionals who can help scale their businesses. It has since become our city’s largest Black, Indigenous, and people of color maker’s market.
This event lets you connect with BIPOC entrepreneurs, makers, artists, culinary artisans, beverage crafters and performers.
Here’s information about the upcoming event.
2022 My People’s Market
The market is taking place Friday, June 3, from 4-8 p.m., and Saturday, June 4, and Sunday, June 5, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
My People’s Market features 140 vendors selling apparel and accessories, home goods, art, wellness and beauty products, books, stationery, and children’s items and food and beverages.
