2023 Covington Makers' Markets - April 29 & Oct. 7
Last April, we hosted our first Covington Makers' Market, a free, fun, family-friendly community event that supports local businesses, brings the community together, and raises money for the Covington Chamber to continue our work. It was successful beyond our expectations, and we held additional markets in August and October with similar results. Each event drew hundreds of visitors and residents, and dozens of vendors and sponsors. We are excited to partner with the City of Covington to present Covington Makers' Market at Real Life Church again.

Vendor Qualifications
Qualifying vendors include makers, creators, artists, artisans, growers, and local shops who sell locally-made or grown products in the Covington, Washington area. The April event is not open to MLM businesses or more traditional businesses (e.g., banks, investment firms, fitness studios, etc.), though those businesses can be event sponsors. Event sponsors at the $250 level and above may have a booth at the market. Our October Covington (Washington) Makers' Market will be combined with our Fall Fest, so it will be open to more business types.
