Small Business Saturday Art Market and Fundraiser

CLICK HERE TO ADD TO YOUR CALENDAR.

Join us for a cozy, community-driven Small Business Saturday Art Market at Diatribe Brewing—a beloved West Asheville brewery known for uplifting local makers, small businesses, and the Asheville community. This family- and dog-friendly taproom was founded by Dave and Betty, longtime members of the Asheville beer community, and we’re honored to partner with them for this special event.

🎨 Shop Local Artists

Browse a curated selection of local artists and makers set up outdoors along Haywood Road. We’ll have 10×10 tent spaces as well as vendors under the covered awning—so there’s plenty to explore no matter the weather. (If the weather turns, we’ll cozy up inside!)

🐾 Supporting Local Rescue: Critter Collective

This market doubles as a fundraiser for Critter Collective, a local animal rescue doing incredible work for animals in need.

  • Every vendor contributes a $20 booth fee directly to the rescue

  • We’re building a raffle basket filled with goodies from each artist

  • All raffle proceeds go straight to Critter Collective

Come shop, sip, and support a great cause while discovering new artists you’ll love.

🍔 Food & Drinks

We’ll be grilling up free Impossible Burgers, and Diatribe Brewing will have drinks, chips, and snacks available for purchase. Bring your friends, bring your pups, enjoy a delicious brew, and make a day of it!

🎶 Live Music

Enjoy live local music from 12:30–3:30 PM, with hopes of a DJ joining us into the evening.

Bring the family, bring your dog, and come celebrate Asheville creativity—all while supporting local rescue animals and a small, community-minded brewery.
