​Key West, FL — The Key West Artisan Market continues its 2025–26 season on Sunday, December 21, from 10 am to 2 pm at Indigenous Park at Higgs Beach with the Shop Local, Support Local Edition, featuring the Sister Season Fund and special guest Santa Q. This festive market is the perfect opportunity to wrap up holiday shopping while supporting local small businesses and giving back to the people who help make the holidays in Key West so special.
 
At the Artisan Market, visitors can shop a curated outdoor event showcasing fine crafts and art from talented Florida Keys makers, festive food and libations, local authors signing books, and beautiful ocean views. Shoppers will find one-of-a-kind gifts including handcrafted jewelry, original artwork, home décor, apparel, specialty foods, artisan breads and cheeses, fresh produce, and authentic dishes from the Mediterranean, Mexico, Argentina, Columbia, and the Caribbean. Great Events Catering offers a full-service bar with Bloody Marys, mimosas, beer and wine, or guests may enjoy fresh-brewed coffee, nitrogen infused teas, pressed juices and boozy popsicles.
 
This edition shines a light on the Sister Season Fund, a local nonprofit that provides emergency financial assistance to hospitality and service industry workers during times of need. Representatives will be onsite sharing how the Fund supports those who work behind the scenes to create memorable experiences for residents and visitors alike. Guests are encouraged to consider making a donation and showing their holiday spirit by supporting the people who keep Key West welcoming year-round.
 
Adding to the festive atmosphere, Santa Q will be onsite from noon to 2 pm, spreading cheer and posing for photos as families enjoy the Market’s relaxed island-style holiday vibe.
 
Keys Yacht Rock Station 93.7 will broadcast live from the market throughout the day, sharing island tunes, interviews, and community highlights.
