Celebrate Fall With Art, Makers, and Community
The September Purple Paisley Artisan Market returns as one of Covington’s favorite autumn traditions. Join us on Saturday, September 19th from 10 AM to 3 PM. This will be a cozy, creative day filled with fall color, handmade goods, and a warm community atmosphere. The open-air market brings together a curated selection of artists, crafters, and local small businesses from across the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky region.
Visitors will discover paintings, woodworking, jewelry, knits, pottery, mixed media, gourmet treats, home fragrances, metaphysical items, wellness goods, seasonal décor, and an evolving range of handcrafted pieces. Every vendor adds something unique. The market’s intimate setting makes it easy to connect with the people behind the work.
A Perfect Fall Day in Covington
While you’re exploring the market, take time to enjoy the charming neighborhood around it. Step into Purple Paisley, Local Artisan Shop. We have more than 75 local artists are represented through rotating collections, gift items, and artisan-made work. It’s a wonderful extension of the creative experience on Scott Street.
Nearby dining and entertainment options make the day even more enjoyable. Coffee at Left Bank, lunch at Coppins or Agave & Rye, a sweet treat at nearby cafés, or a seasonal beer at Braxton all pair well with a fall shopping outing. Finish with a walk by the Cathedral Basilica to enjoy the architecture and the crisp September air.
