About Artists Sunday: Artists Sunday—the Sunday after Thanksgiving—is dedicated to supporting artists and recognizing how they enrich our lives, communities, and the economy. It was created in 2020 to encourage people to shop with artists and buy art as gifts during the holidays. More than 500 communities across the U.S. will champion local artists and promote the giving of the arts this holiday season.

About Akron Bazaar: Akron Bazaar features the best local and regional makers with a wide variety of handmade goods. This event is the younger sister of Cleveland Bazaar, which has been hosting these kinds of popups since 2004.
