ASHHO Cultural Night Market

About the Cultural Night Market:

The ASHHO Cultural Night Market is dedicated to uplifting and promoting Black, Brown, LGBTQ+, and marginalized communities. Our Cultural Night Market provides vendors with the opportunity to showcase and sell their goods with minimal barriers.

Many of our vendors are single parents, survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking, undocumented individuals, refugees, small business owners, and aspiring entrepreneurs, from youth to elders. We encourage intentional shopping within our community to support our vendors.
