Every Third Thursday, MadJax Maker Force and the Muncie Makers Market partner to transform the building into an indoor Night Market experience. To shape the experience each month, The Night Market is layered with a rotating hands-on creative activity, a new exhibition opening in the Toolsong Gallery, and a live music performance to enhance your evening of shopping with our local Artisans. No two nights look exactly the same, and each one offers an easy, welcoming way to explore, make, and connect.
\n
\nWhile you\u2019re here to Sip & Shop, have an adventure with MadJax tours and jump into Drop-In Creative Corner, a relaxed Thursday evening hang where makers of all skill levels gather to craft, tinker, and create together. Bring a project you\u2019re already working on, try something new with provided supplies, or simply enjoy making alongside others (no class commitment required).<\/span><\/p>\n

Guests are invited to wander the fascinating former factory that houses MadJax, meet local Makers, Sip & Shop, catch live music, and take in new artwork. MadJax will be open for tours, giving visitors a chance to explore the maker spaces, studios, and creative businesses housed throughout the building. FREE Admission and FREE Parking! Our next gathering of The Night Market from 5-8p on Thursday, March 19th, will feature:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
