PORT HURON, Mich. — Port Huron’s Art Hop returned the weekend of Oct. 9-10 for a new fall edition. The Fall Art Hop, billed as a Vendor Edition, ran Friday and Saturday, Oct. 9 and 10, in downtown Port Huron, according to the festival’s website.

Organizers described the two days as a market centered on makers, artists and small businesses, a fall counterpart to the spring festival, which ran May 15 to 29 this year.

Friday was opening day, with the full vendor market downtown. On Saturday, the market continued and the weekend was set to end with a closing celebration.

Vendor booths were planned along downtown with handmade, vintage and small-batch goods, the website said. Working artists were scheduled to do live demonstrations and sell from their tables, alongside local food vendors, downtown restaurants, street performances and pop-ups.

Before the event, the website invited vendor applications and asked downtown businesses to sign up to host a vendor, activity or pop-up. The event was presented by The Wrigley Foundation.

Updated Oct. 12, 2026: The Fall Art Hop took place Oct. 9-10. This guide was published before them, and its schedule language has been changed to the past tense.
