Key West Artisan Market “It’s For the Birds” Edition Features the Key West Wildlife Center on Sunday, February 15

Key West, FL — The Key West Artisan Market continues its 2026 season on Sunday, February 15, from 10 am to 2 pm at Indigenous Park at Higgs Beach with the It’s For the Birds Edition, featuring the Key West Wildlife Center. This Market shares space with the Center and invites locals and visitors to shop local while learning more about the vital work being done to care for injured and orphaned wild birds and native wildlife in the Florida Keys.

At the Artisan Market, guests are invited to experience a thoughtfully designed open-air showcase featuring fine crafts and art by accomplished Florida Keys makers, elevated food and libations, and sweeping ocean views. The market offers an inspired mix of handcrafted jewelry, original artwork spanning acrylics, watercolor, papercuts, ceramics, and turned wood, bespoke home décor, carefully selected apparel and textiles, artisan breads and cheeses, fresh seasonal produce, local seafood and premium butcher selections, slow-smoked barbecue, indulgent desserts, and authentic global flavors from the Mediterranean, France, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, and the Caribbean. Great Events Catering offers a full-service bar featuring handcrafted, next-level Bloody Marys and mimosas, while guests may also enjoy fresh-brewed coffee, nitrogen-infused teas, pressed fruit juices, artisanal ice cream, and tropically flavored boozy popsicles.

This market puts the focus on the Key West Wildlife Center and its ongoing efforts to protect and rehabilitate local wildlife. Representatives will be onsite promoting their upcoming fundraiser at West Martello Tower, with tickets available for purchase during the Market, as well as offering tours of the Wildlife Center by donation and selling branded merchandise to support their work.

Keys Yacht Rock Station 93.7 will broadcast live from the market throughout the day, sharing island tunes, interviews, and community highlights. Guests can meet local authors signing books, watch artists at work, and enjoy a gorgeous day wandering through Indigenous Park.

The Key West Artisan Market blends community spirit with local creativity and entrepreneurship, pairing nonprofit partners with a vibrant open-air shopping experience by the sea. Each edition supports a different charitable organization working to strengthen the island community. Admission and parking are free, and guests are encouraged to BYOB — bring your own shopping bags or pick up a branded bag at the Artisan Market info tent.

The Key West Artisan Market takes place select Sundays at Indigenous Park at Higgs Beach, offering a rotating lineup of themes and nonprofit partners throughout the season.
