Hey there, Memphis! Can you feel that chill in the air? It’s officially spooky season, and if you’re anything like me, you’re ready to embrace all the ghoulish goodness that comes with it! One of the highlights of this time of year is the beloved Monster Market, a pop-up shop that’s become a cherished local tradition since it started back in 2017. If you’re on the hunt for something a little weird and a whole lot fun, you’ve hit the jackpot!
Monster Market isn’t just your run-of-the-mill seasonal store; it’s a veritable playground for the artistic and the eerie. Picture this: a collection featuring over 100 local makers, crafters, and artisans showcasing their wildest creations—from quirky art pieces to spooky home decor. It’s a shop made for all you weirdos out there who appreciate the peculiar, the cute, and everything in between!
This celebration of creativity is lovingly curated by the fabulous Holtermonster, whose work you might recognize from local movie posters and music promotions. Let me tell you, this gal knows how to throw a spooky shindig!
This year’s Monster Market will run from October 11-16, 2024, at the legendary Medicine Factory right in downtown Memphis. If you’re like me, the opening night is the most exciting part. Not only will you be among the first to explore all the creative goodies, but you’ll also be treated to complimentary refreshments! Local favorites like Bain Barbecue, Whisks of Doom, Old Dominick, and Wiseacre will be serving up some tasty bites while you enjoy some beats from DJ St. Francis Elevator Ride, who’s known for making fantastic VHS tees!
Prepare for a lineup of fun events that will make your visit even more memorable! You’ll find a Rumors and Legends in-store game demo, Make-a-Monster Workshops, spooky bake sales, and even a movie night. And if you’re itching to unwind after a week of work, the professional happy hour sounds like a fantastic way to relax with fellow spooky souls.
