Hometown Vendor Market
Shop unique finds from dozens of local vendors at Hometown Vendor Market’s upcoming Back-to-School Market, planned for August 9-10 at the Riverchase Galleria.
Hometown Vendor Market returns to the Riverchase Galleria with a Back-to-School Craft & Vendor Market – just in time for the new school year!
The market, scheduled for August 9 – 10, promises a diverse mix of local entrepreneurs offering handmade goods, boutique apparel, jewelry, home décor, art, specialty foods, wellness products, gifts and much more.
And supporting and encouraging that diversity has shaped the way co-owners Hannah and Amy have built Hometown Vendor Market, now a nationwide company, from the very beginning.
As female and minority business owners, Hannah says she and Amy understand the challenges many entrepreneurs face when trying to grow their businesses; it’s why the co-owners aim to create welcoming, inclusive spaces where businesses of all backgrounds have the opportunity to succeed.

The Back-to-School Market promises local, handmade goods, boutique apparel, jewelry, home décor, art, specialty foods, wellness products, gifts and more.
“We’re proud to work with vendors from every walk of life and believe that diversity makes our markets stronger,” shared Hannah. “Seeing small businesses gain confidence, connect with customers, and reach new milestones is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.”
While markets like this one allow artisans, makers, and entrepreneurs to connect directly with the people they serve, it’s also a place where shoppers can discover unique, locally made goods and services they may not find anywhere else – all while keeping hard-earned dollars right here in the community.
“Our mission has always been to create spaces where local businesses can thrive,” said Hannah. “Every purchase made at a vendor market supports someone’s dream, family, and future, and that’s something we’re incredibly proud to be part of.”
At the Back-to-School market, shoppers can expect a thoughtfully curated showcase of quality vendors featuring back-to-school gifts, apparel, accessories and other essentials, plus finds like handcrafted products and home décor, specialty foods, wellness items, artwork and unique services.
It’s an opportunity for families to support local businesses while discovering products that aren’t available in big-box stores.
