artisan markets
Handmade goods venues
Artisan markets are venues where craftspeople and small-scale producers sell handmade or locally produced goods directly to consumers.
Unlike conventional markets, artisan markets emphasize traditional techniques, unique designs, and personal connection between maker and buyer: We picked up handmade ceramics at the artisan market downtown.
The term often appears in tourism and urban revitalization contexts.
