December 2018 Artists Market
What is “A City of Buffalo Artists Market”?
A City of Buffalo Artists Market is a one day artists market showcasing a mix of different artists from Western New York. This is the fourth December Artists Market presented in the Ellicott Square Building featuring 50+ local vendors offering unique holiday gifts for everyone on your list including yourself. The event will also feature food, music and a cash bar.
Ellicott Development Company, owner of the Ellicott Square Building and event coordinator/sponsor, hopes to create awareness and bring holiday spirit to the historic and grand building. As tradition of over 40 years, each year Ellicott Development selects a special tree to decorate in the lobby for the holiday season. On average, the tree will range in height from 25 to 30 feet tall and size alone can be completely captivating. Once decorated, the enormous tree is the perfect background for pictures and will be sure to get everyone in the holiday spirit.
