This is a lovely market hosting local artisans, fresh creative foods and live entertainment. It is held inside City Hall in the cold winter months and on 104St in the summer. Easy to get downtown by bus. City Hall also has a wading pool in the summer and skating in the winter. There are always events across the street at Churchill Square.
