Due to COVID-19 requirements, we aren’t able to host as many vendors right now, including many of our long-time favorites. However, those vendors are still in business, and their products are still available.
One of them is The Vital Element Jewelry:
The Vital Element features handcrafted jewelry, decor and local educational workshops, featuring carefully curated materials with unique attributes.
Cassandra Lenzini is a jewelry designer, metalsmith, lapidary artist and workshop instructor living and working alongside the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon. A self-taught artist of many forms of media and creative MacGuyver, she shares her artistic passions by combining metal and stone into natural adornments for body and home.
When the Market season winds down, she can be found leading creative and botanical workshops in the surrounding communities. Made for both adults and kids, her workshops aim to bring out your own creative spirit. Whether creating jewelry or playing in the dirt, she seeks projects that show attendees they’re all capable of creating beautiful things.
Many visitors make a walk to the Market part of their Sunday routine — a little exercise, fresh air, and a chance to check out what’s new around downtown or along the riverfront. Bring a backpack and come on foot!
Getting to downtown Milwaukie by bike couldn't be easier. Located on the banks of the Willamette River there are multiple "bike-friendly" ways to get to the Market. The Springwater Corridor Trail, the major segment of the "40-Mile Loop" is just 1 mile north of Downtown Milwaukie. From Downtown Portland and close in SE enjoy the scenic ride from the Eastbank Esplanade, through Sellwood and right to the Market. The 6.5 mile ride was created on decommissioned railroad lines so it makes for an easy Sunday morning ride! For more information about getting around by bike in and around Portland visit The City of Portland's website.
