Fairs & Markets❯Craft Fairs

At the Oregon Convention Center, fans of the strange, the unusual, and the bizarre can explore a curated market of vendors, artists, dealers, and small businesses devoted to oddities. Expect taxidermy, preserved specimens, original art, horror and Halloween-inspired creations, antiques, handmade curiosities, vintage medical oddities, eerie apparel, distinctive jewelry, skulls and bones, funeral-related collectibles, and more. All merchandise is legal to own and responsibly sourced. Beyond the marketplace, the event features sideshow performances on stage and offers the chance to learn the craft of taxidermy with classes held during the expo. Admission is $15 in advance or $20 at the door, and children 12 and under are admitted free without a ticket. Presented with a DIY approach and a focus on oddities vendors and dark artists, the expo aims to provide a welcoming space to discover new creators and connect with a community of like-minded people.

Doomsday is an MF Doom-themed group art exhibition celebrating the life, legacy, music, and unmistakable visual identity of one of hip-hop’s most influential and mysterious artists. Presented in partnership with Unspoken and More Than February Art Gallery, the exhibition brings together a diverse group of artists working across painting, illustration, sculpture, design, fashion, and mixed media to reinterpret the world of MF Doom through their own creative lens.

Timed around the anniversary of Doom's passing, Doomsday is both a tribute and a celebration—honoring an artist whose impact extended far beyond music. From the iconic metal mask and comic-book-inspired mythology to his intricate lyricism, production, and independent spirit, MF Doom created a universe that continues to inspire artists, musicians, designers, and fans around the world.

The exhibition will feature original artwork and special installations inspired by Doom, including sculpture, collectible objects, apparel, prints, collaborative pieces, and one-of-a-kind interpretations of the mask and character. Guests will also be able to experience interactive elements including an MF Doom-inspired photo booth, music, merchandise, raffles, and special collaborations created specifically for the exhibition. At its core, Doomsday is about bringing together art, hip-hop, community, and independent creativity while giving artists a space to celebrate a cultural figure whose influence remains deeply present.

Opening Reception: Thursday 6 p.m.–9 p.m.

–Presented By: Rotary Club of Vancouver

–Dates: November 27, 2026

–Location: Esther Short Park

–Address: 301 W 8th St., Vancouver, WA 98660

–Time: 4:00 PM to 6:30 PM

Downtown Vancouver turns festive on Friday, November 27, 2026, when the Rotary Club of Vancouver presents the annual Community Tree Lighting at the Vancouver Waterfront and Esther Short Park. This free, family-friendly celebration is one of Vancouver’s signature holiday events and a great way to welcome the season. Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive on the Columbia River, a lighted vehicle parade rolls through downtown, and the community gathers as the tree lights up at 6 p.m.

Waterfront arrival: Head to the Vancouver Waterfront in the late afternoon to see Santa and Mrs. Claus sail in by tugboat, escorted by a flotilla of Columbia River Christmas ships. This arrival honors the city’s riverfront roots and sets the tone for the evening.

Lighted vehicle parade: After greeting the crowd at the Waterfront, Santa and Mrs. Claus join a parade of decorated vehicles that travels up to downtown and into Esther Short Park, where the main festivities continue.

Tree lighting at 6:00 p.m.: The community gathers around the big holiday tree in Esther Short Park for the countdown. When Santa flips the switch, the park comes alive with lights, music, and photo ops.

• Holiday Market at the Hilton Vancouver: Browse local, handmade gifts and treats from 3 to 8 p.m. inside the Hilton, adjacent to Esther Short Park.
• Live music and on-stage entertainment leading up to the lighting
• Carriage rides along 6th Street (arrive early; they’re popular)
• Family photo stations, including Santa photos after the lighting
• Frozen: Anna/Elsa/Olaf character appearances for kids and photos
• The official community tree lighting at 6 p.m.

Cost: Free and open to the public.

Locations: Festivities take place at two connected spots — the Vancouver Waterfront (for the tugboat/ship arrival) and Esther Short Park, 605 Esther St., Vancouver, WA (for the parade arrival, music, and tree lighting). Both are in downtown Vancouver and walkable.

Parking: City lots around Esther Short Park open at or before 3 p.m.; Rotary notes that a $5 parking donation is requested in some lots. Plan to arrive early for the closest spaces or consider rideshare/transit due to the downtown location and holiday crowds.

No — the Vancouver Community Tree Lighting is a free community event presented by the Rotary Club of Vancouver. Just dress for the weather and show up.

This is one of the most festive tree lightings in southwest Washington: river arrival, lighted parade, downtown setting, and a park that stays beautifully lit through the season.

Before or after the lighting, explore downtown restaurants, grab hot drinks, or stroll the Waterfront for more lights. You can find more seasonal events on our Vancouver WA events calendar.

Come experience one of the largest pop-up art movements to hit North America over the past decade.

Batter sizzles, beer foams, and canvas lines the walls from ceiling to floor as hundreds, sometimes thousands, of revelers indulge in endless pancakes.

Enjoy Leslie McMillan’s one-of-a-kind handcrafted jewelry and painter bd dombrowsky’s visual explorations of the mischievous silver night and the many insights the capricious muse offers.

Painter bd dombrowsky's visual style is derived from an interest in vintage illustrated books — encyclopedias, primers, comics, and stories — all the simple visual devices used as a culture to educate and socialize. Much of their work is informed by myths and folklore, as they retell old stories and weave them into new ones. Drawing on a background in drama, sculpture and printmaking, bd dombrowsky's goal is to craft a resonant space in which these stories can unfold, drawn from a shared mythos but reimagined by the artist and narrated by the viewer.

Jewelry Artist Leslie McMillan

As a jewelry smith, Leslie McMillan is all over the place. To begin with, they have ADHD, so their mind is manic. Leslie roams from fusing gold on steel to traditional silversmithing to bonding Japanese silver leaf. When working with steel and gold, Leslie is drawn to the truth that you cannot control the outcome. When heated high enough to fuse with the steel, the gold takes on a life of its own and travels where it wants to go. When working with sterling silver and natural stones, Leslie follows a more traditional approach. Creating hand-forged settings and sourcing stones from First Nation lapidary artists are fundamental to the work. No matter the process, Leslie relies on inspiration from the great Pacific Northwest and all its natural beauty to influence the final piece.

Feeding the Future is a collaborative group show organized by Alberta Street Gallery members Sasha Wilk and Gabe Wolfe. Both curating artists are parents of young children and have brought together other creatives who are caregivers, educators, or allies of children to showcase work that uplifts and celebrates youth. As citizens invested in hope for a future built on love and care, they know that the next generation requires attention to help them become the compassionate, responsible, and thoughtful humans the next chapter of humanity needs. The works in this show feature images centering play, connection, and collaboration as enriching elements of young people's lives.

The artists: Sasha Wilk, Gabe Wolfe, Kyra Watkins, Elizabeth Goss, Stefania Salles Bruins, Corinne Kenly Barber, Forest Salazar, Danny Stephens and Kristie Winther.

Last Thursday Opening Reception, Oct. 29, 6–9 p.m.
