a wandering winter market in Downtown Kennewick
Free · All ages
A wandering winter market through downtown Kennewick. Pop into your favorite local shops, meet local authors and bookish vendors set up inside them, and knock out your holiday shopping while supporting small business.
Meet your next favorite author
Downtown is the venue. Local authors and bookish makers set up inside participating small businesses, so you can walk from shop to shop, browse, and talk to the people behind the books. Come for an hour or stay all afternoon.
