Our Markets

I Heart Indie Markets (IHIM) curates vibrant events that bring together local makers and craft beverage spaces (Think- breweries, distilleries, cideries, and coffee shops). Our markets transform taprooms and tasting rooms into creative hubs where guests can hang out with friends, grab a drink, shop, and discover local art and handmade goods.

While we host memorable single-location events, IHIM is best known for our signature Makers Market & Bar Hop experiences. These multi-venue markets feature 3–7 locations within a neighborhood, all hosting markets at the same time.

 

Shoppers can explore the area, discover local artisans, and enjoy a drink as they move from one stop to the next. It’s a dynamic way to experience community, creativity, and connection.

Each season, our markets feature themed events that returning shoppers look forward to every year:

​

  • Shop with Heart (January–March)

  • Spring into Local (March–May)

  • Handmade Summer (June–September)

  • Halloween Makers Market (October)

  • Shop Small – Holiday Season Events (November–December)
