MAKING THE MARKET MORE
Getting involved with The Friends is a great way to get immersed in the life and culture of the Rochester Public Market. Here’s a quick glimpse at what we do, why we do it, and the impact it has on our community.
SNAP TOKEN PROGRAM
Our nation-leading program allows all market-goers the ability to purchase fresh foods from local vendors at the market using their Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.
MERCHANDISE BOOTH
Check our our rotating selection of Public Market Swag on Saturdays. Currently operating in the Demo kitchen area near the center entrance to Shed B.
MARKET TOURS
The Market is one of the most iconic and interesting places in our community. Our tours give you a behind-the-scenes look at the Market’s rich past, bustling present, and promising future.
ARTIST ROW ART SHOW
We began this juried art show in 2004! It replaces the fruits and veggies of the Market with local musicians, food trucks, the unique creations of nearly 200 up-and-coming artists, and more than 20,000 attendees. It’s a must-do come September!
