this season’s five highlights:

✰ No. 1 — 180+ Vendors

We exhibited more than 180+ women and LGBTQ+ creators and small business owners across Texas.

✰ No. 2 — 4,000+ Visitors

We welcomed 4,000+ visitors in our backyard market at Ani’s Day & Night (4,500, if you include dogs).

✰ No. 3 — $1,000+ Fundraised

Thanks to donations at the door and our Holiday Raffle (championed by Tito’s Handmade Vodka), we fundraised $1,000+ for our programs.

✰ No. 4 — 6 Community Initiatives Supported

Throughout our Fall Season, we hosted six different community workshops and experiences from Gothess Jasmine’s first-ever Family-Friendly Holiday Drag Show to our 2nd-Annual Plus-Size Community Clothing Swap to a Period Kit Packing Party with Birds ‘N Bees Box.

✰ No. 5 — $11,000 In Commissions

It took a team of 250+ people and six months of collaboration to open The Front Market’s Fall Season for eight full days. The market’s buildout generated more than $11,000 in commissions and contracts for women- and queer-owned creatives and production teams in Austin, too.

It's crucial for us that The Front Market models more than lip service for women and LGBTQ+ voices in Texas.

We would not be able to use the market as a space to nurture movements and causes we care about without support from our sponsors, members, staff, volunteers, friends and you. Thank you.
