Duluth’s Winter in the West: Artisan Market at Bailey Builds
Saturday, February 23, 10 am – 5 pm
DULUTH, Minn. (February 20, 2019) – Duluth’s local artisan community is thriving, and nationally known reclaimed wood artists and Duluth business owners, Anna and Nathanael Bailey are using their influence and resources to support other local makers through an outdoor winter market.
Embracing the Winter, the snow, and our exceptional maker community with a FREE outdoor winter event that is expected to bring over 2000 shoppers to West Duluth.
This Saturday, 25+ local and regional artisans will be joining the Bailey Builds and friends family on the corner of 58th ave West and Grand Ave. The business is celebrating winter with an outdoor market featuring 25+ local and regional artisans. 58th Ave East will be closed down to host the over 2000 people expected to attend. Shoppers will not only enjoy the handcrafted goods of some of the best local makers, but they will also be spoiled with hundreds of FRESH HOT DONUTS and coffee, warm campfires and cuddly critters (giant bunny, goats, llama, yak, alpaca, pony, etc) from Cook’s Country Connection. The local makers will be selling their goods in a 40×40 foot tent in our neighbors (Shake It) parking lot, inside the bailey builds woodshop studio and storefront, and inside Shake It.
The hosts of the event are Nathanael and Anna Bailey, owners of Bailey Builds. They have established themselves as nationally known wood mosaic artists. They desire to use their platform and influence (over a combined total of 30,000 followers on instagram and facebook) to bring a greater awareness, appreciation, and a support system to Duluth’s thriving arts community. Their innovative storefront, offering monthly pop-up rental spaces to local artisans, is the first of its kind in Duluth. Over the past year, they have not only reclaimed wood to incorporate into one-of-a-kind pieces of art that they sell nation wide, but they have also reclaimed a beautiful corner and landmark building in Spirit Valley. They bought a 1920’s Texaco Gas station in 2017, and have renovated it into their woodshop studio, collaborative storefront, and soon to open Makers Loft (airbnb).
