About the Campaign:

🛍️ Where Community Comes Together! 🛍️

The Shelby Marketplace is Shelby's newest monthly gathering place, a warm, welcoming indoor market designed to bring neighbors together, lift up local businesses, and give back to the organizations that make this community great.

The Marketplace is open one Saturday a month from September through May at the Early Childhood Center Gym, It's a place to discover, connect, and celebrate everything that makes Shelby special. Browse unique handmade items, home décor, crafts, specialty products, and gifts from local vendors, while supporting nonprofit organizations, animal rescue and rehabilitation groups, school fundraisers, and community causes that are doing meaningful work right here at home.

Every market month brings something new: live demonstrations, performances, puppet shows, chainsaw carving, wildlife education, and more.
