Many vendors will be running sales on their merchandise for the holidays, offering gift sets, and taking custom orders. And, we will feature live music and an eco-friendly DIY gift-wrapping station to wrap up all of your holiday gifts. 


State Senator Jamie Raskin (District 20, Silver Spring and Takoma Park) describes why these markets will be part of his holiday shopping, "I'm doing all my holiday shopping in Silver Spring and Takoma Park, and our homegrown Fenton Street Market presents an exciting, eclectic, unpredictable and totally satisfying shopping experience in the community for consumers who don't want to lose their soul (or their children!) in a shopping mall. Think global and shop local!"
