Arisia Night Market

Come to the Arisia Night Market!

Saturday, January 17th
7:30p - 9:30p
Lobby, First Floor

Join us for the Arisia Night Market, a place to celebrate whimsy and handmade awesome! This is a low-key, DIY gathering in the lobby for crafters, makers, traders, trinket-lovers, and goblins of all kinds.

If you're not a crafter or maker, but you have small objects to trade, bring a few and see what happens.

 

Maker & Crafter Barter

If you’re a maker or crafter, bring a dozen or so of your wares to barter with others. No sales, just swapping. Wander around the lobby, look for something that catches your eye, and offer to trade with that person for something of yours. Please be respectful if someone says no thank you,

 

Trinket Trade for All Ages

Goblins of all ages are invited to bring beads, charms, buttons, and other trinkets to trade with each other. To participate, just make up a bag of small shinies, sparklies, or soft things and then wander around the first floor of the lobby looking for other folks with their trinket bags. Again, no sales, just trading trinket for precious trinket.

We will have a small number of starter bags available for folks who didn't see this notice in time to bring their own, especially for our smallest goblins.

 

Wear Your Goblin Market Finery

Show your flair! From high fantasy to urban chaos, goblin markets are in all genres. Dress up in whatever your particular goblin would wear to a night market and enjoy the creativity of others.
