Coastal Makers Market
Hosted by Genetic Threads
Applications are now CLOSED.
We've rebranded the Bedford Fall and Summer markets hosted at Dewolf Park to our new name the Coastal Makers Market: Presented by Genetic Threads.
We'll still be taking over Dewolf Park with our beloved maker friends as well as some new faces but we felt the rebrand was necessary to have a dedicated space to showcase our beloved markets. See below for our upcoming market dates for 2024 and stay tuned for vendor information for each market, coming shortly.
Currently, all markets are full for the summer, if you missed the chance to apply, please join our waiting list linked below.
New This Year: Music From Jeff Bonang
Raised on Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Bruce Springsteen, Dartmouth NS based singer-songwriter-storyteller Jeff Bonang is occasionally referred to as a “troubadour”. Something of a late bloomer, he features a vast repertoire of covers that cross a variety of genres, and especially genuine originals that he delivers with a simple, honest style that makes him very easy to listen to.

Meet the brains behind Coastal Makers Market and Genetic Threads
We pride ourselves on bringing quality makers markets to Nova Scotia. All of our markets are juried and we try to avoid overlap between vendors to allow a great experience for not only our shoppers but also our vendors. We've successfully hosted six markets and can't wait to host more in 2024.
Outside of hosting markets we also own Genetic Threads, a company specializing in creating quality handmade baby clothing. When we started Genetic Threads three years ago we found it hard to find quality makers markets in our area and resorted to trying to host our own and that is when The Coastal Makers Market was created!
