Merry Market Returns for Black Friday and Small Business Saturday

The Laurens County Museum is kicking off the holiday shopping season with a festive, family-friendly celebration as the Merry Market returns for Black Friday and Small Business Saturday.

Shoppers are invited to stroll through the Market, which will feature more than 20 local vendors offering unique gifts, handcrafted items, treats, and holiday favorites. Music, food, and hot chocolate will add to the festive atmosphere, and visitors can enjoy hot dog plates on Saturday.

Admission to both the Museum and the Merry Market is free, making it an ideal stop for families, holiday shoppers, and supporters of local artisans.

While visiting, guests are encouraged to explore the Museum’s enchanting Festival of Trees, a beloved annual display that transforms the space with beautifully decorated Christmas trees created by community groups, businesses, and organizations.

The Merry Market offers the perfect opportunity to support local vendors, enjoy seasonal spirit, and start checking off that holiday shopping list—all while celebrating community and creativity in downtown Laurens.
