Artist Marketplace

Bear on the Square’s juried Artist Market is one of North Georgia’s finest markets of traditional crafts, featuring a remarkable collection of one-of-a-kind, handmade items from the mountain region’s best artists.

Held around the Historic Public Square in Dahlonega, the Artist Marketplace presents juried work from an impressive group of more than 70 regional artists. Fiber and textiles, folk arts, furniture/woodworking, glass and metal, jewelry, mixed media, drawing and painting, photography, pottery, and jams, jelly, honey, candles, and soaps are almost always represented.

Applications for the artist market will be posted here by the beginning of November 2026.
