Dubuque Millwork Night Market is Set for Thursday 5 to 8 pm

As the summer gets underway, the second Millwork Night Market of the season is happening Thursday, June 9, starting at 5 pm.

It will be another fun evening in Dubuque's Millwork District with unique vendors, produce, plants, flowers, specialty foods, artists, handmade goods, craft beer, and live music.

Located on Jackson Street, between 7th - 9th Streets, the Millwork Night Market has provided a relaxed evening event for five years running.

Bring your camping chairs and find a good spot to enjoy the music, festive atmosphere, great food, weather, and people watching.

Although it certainly has a similar feel, the Night Market isn't your typical Farmer's Market. Think of this as a free after-work street party on steroids. With food trucks, beer for sale by the Jaycees, and live music with the massive old brick warehouses as the dramatic backdrop, it's a fun vibe for the young and young at heart.

Market Co-Founders Andie Donnan & Danielle Stowell share a love of local foods & local arts. So they created the event to help put shoppers in touch with the tri-state area's farmers, producers, artists, and artisans.

The Night Market is also a terrific way to shop locally for farm-fresh produce, meat, dairy, art, and household items. You keep your dollars in Dubuque by supporting the local vendors, which keeps our local economy strong.

Thursday's forecast calls for partly cloudy skies with a high temperature in the mid to high 70s. Hence, as the sun sets and the evening festivities commence, it should be a sublime summer evening for attending June's Millwork Night Market.

The Millwork Night Market happens every second Thursday of the month through October. Visit MillworkNightMarket.com
