Handmade Arcade will host sensory-friendly shopping from 4:30 - 6 PM on December 7 during the 2024 Holiday Market. Here's what to expect during that time frame:

• We will limit the number of available ticket reservations from 4:30 - 6 PM by more than 50%.
• The DJ will stop playing music between 4:30 - 6 PM.
• We support light engagement only between makers & shoppers (think approaching a table to browse and not engaging in conversation, makers not giving shoppers more information about their products or special sales unless asked, etc.).

Please see our Holiday Market FAQ page for full details about parking, accessibility measures, ticketing, and more.
