The San Francisco Arts Market kicked off its 2nd year on June 16th with a bang and has been running at full speed as San Francisco’s weekly outdoor Market in United Nations Plaza for local handmade arts, crafts and live-performance on Thursdays. What makes SF Arts Market stand out from any other arts and crafts market is that it is free for local artists and artisans to vend and is intended to help revitalize the mid-Market region with arts, culture and activity. A partnership project between the Mayors Office of Economic Workforce and Development and Independent Arts & Media, both groups are working within and outside the community to realize positive change for the mid-Market region and support local artists and craft makers.

Central Market Arts is a group of organizations dedicated to a common vision of promoting San Francisco’s Central Market Neighborhood as a vital arts district. Their mission is to serve as a unified voice for arts of every discipline through promotion of arts, cooperative marketing, programming coordination, and the production of a yearly capstone event.
