Aurora Public Library has partnered with the mission-driven organization Rebel Marketplace to bring a farmers market to Hoffman Heights Library, 1298 Peoria St., through September. First one to take place is on June 11.
The farmers market at Hoffman Library was created to be an authentic neighborhood marketplace run and operated by surrounding community businesses with the library as the hub. Each farmers market will take place from 6 to 8 p.m., Wednesday, June 11, July 9, Aug. 6 and Sept. 10, and the library branch will remain open late on those dates to offer additional programs and services.
Along with community businesses offering their goods, Hoffman Heights Library will host a variety of programs at each farmers market, including storytimes at 6:30 and 7:30 p.m., kids play area at 6 and 7 p.m. and a teen game space from 6 to 8 p.m.
