Spring Fling Market
“A fresh, seasonal, community market worth lingering for. Explore the talents of local makers while connecting with your community!
Join us at HQ for our Spring Fling Market, a lively community pop up celebrating local creativity, small businesses, and the start of a new season.
This event is open to both HQ members and the public. Spend your Saturday browsing booths hosted by HQ members showcasing handmade goods, curated finds, baked treats, unique products, and special skills. It’s the perfect chance to shop local, support entrepreneurs, and experience the energy of our third space firsthand.
More than just a market, this event is also a celebration of our newest members joining during our Spring Membership Sale . It’s our way of officially welcoming them into the HQ community while bringing together longtime members as well. Think of it as part market, part mixer, part spring gathering. A space to mingle, start conversations, reconnect with familiar faces, and build new relationships both personal and professional.
Whether you’re coming to shop, network, or simply spend a fun morning surrounded by good energy, we’d love to have you.
Free to attend.”
