Kentuck Art Center is hosting its July 20 Art Market at its new Tuscaloosa branch across from the Tuscaloosa Public Library on Jack Warner Parkway.

It’s happening from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., meaning visitors to the Tuscaloosa Farmers Market across the street can pop between the two easily.

The Art Market features artists and their wares including paintings, candles, jewelry, photography, ceramics and more.

If anyone gets hungry, World of Beer’s food truck will be present at the event.

And there will be children’s activities including a craft station and bubbles.

“We welcome all in the community to join us for Kentuck’s Art Market in Tuscaloosa,” said Kentuck Executive Director Exa Skinner.

The Art Market comes alongside Kentuck’s expansion into the former Mildred Westervelt Warner Transpotation Museum, itself the former Queen City bathhouse.

“Guests will notice new signage around the Kentuck at Queen City building, showing glimpses of art that will be shown inside when the building reopens later this year,” said Skinner.

Kentuck’s Art Markets are held on the third Saturday of each month. More information can be found here.
