SLOW Market
The Slow Market, a unique collaboration co-hosted by Above Snakes and Hostcraft, brings a fresh, intentional energy to the historic heart of the city at the Old Town Albuquerque Plaza. Designed to uplift the local creative community, this market operates on a revolutionary "community-first" model: we charge zero vendor fees and provide comprehensive marketing for our participants at no cost. By removing the financial barriers that often gatekeep small-scale artisans, we allow makers to focus entirely on their craft, ensuring that passion remains the central focus against the beautiful, storied backdrop of Old Town’s adobe architecture.
Our mission is rooted in the SLOW philosophy—Sustainable, Local, Organic, and Wholesome. We are currently calling for all makers who align with these values to join our upcoming event. If your work prioritizes environmental responsibility, utilizes regional resources, or honors the art of slow, ethical production, we want to hear from you. Together, Above Snakes and Hostcraft are transforming the Plaza into a vibrant ecosystem where conscious consumerism meets authentic craftsmanship. We invite you to apply and help us build a more intentional future right here in the Land of Enchantment.
