Friday’s opening market launches the 2026 Talent Artisans & Growers Evening Markets from 5 p.m. to sunset at Old Town Park, with free public admission.
Forty vendors — including local artisans, growers, food sellers and three food trucks — will fill the downtown Talent park for the season’s first monthly event.
Victoria Lawton-Diez performs from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., becoming the first act on Old Town Park’s new stage since the park was renovated last year.
The markets are scheduled for the fourth Friday of each month from May through August, with parking available at Talent City Hall, the Community Center and on nearby streets.
