Local Spotlight: The Spring Art Market at Dennos Museum Center Brings Traverse City Together Each spring, Traverse City’s creative spirit finds a home at the Dennos Museum Center for the Holiday Artist Market. The 2026 event, happening May 9th from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, is not just an opportunity for artists—it’s a celebration of our community’s passion for creativity and local talent. Hosted inside the welcoming halls of the Dennos Museum Center and the distinctive Milliken Auditorium, the market brings neighbors, friends, and families together to support Traverse City’s vibrant arts scene. Applications are now open and due by February 15th, inviting local makers to share their unique vision with art lovers from all over. Events like these help keep the arts alive in northern Michigan, foster connections between artists and the public, and encourage our city’s ever-growing reputation as a cultural hub. If you’re a Traverse City local—whether you’re applying as an artist or planning to attend—this is your chance to be part of something authentically special.
