Market at the Center

We’re excited to welcome you to the debut season of the Market at the Center, a new monthly community market hosted at the National Western Center in collaboration with CSU Spur’s Second Saturdays.

This isn’t your typical vendor market. The Market at the Center is designed to reflect the rich diversity of our region and is rooted in values of equity, inclusion, and cultural connection. We’re creating an intentional space where small businesses, artists, food entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and community groups can share their work, tell their stories, and connect directly with the public in a welcoming, family-friendly environment.

Each month’s market will align with CSU Spur’s themed Second Saturday programming—bringing built-in foot traffic, interactive experiences, and educational opportunities that enhance the overall vibe and visitor experience.

We’re curating a diverse lineup of vendors including:

• Art and handmade goods

• Specialty packaged and prepared foods

• Food trucks and beverage vendors

• Wellness and lifestyle products

• Community organizations and nonprofits
