MOOSE JAW — Mortlach’s Bohemian Market and permanent summertime venue continue to grow and later this month the venue’s organizers are planning an event to give back by helping to support non-profits and charities in the area.
The village’s next charitable initiative is set to run onsite in Mortlach from Sept. 23 to 29.
If you visit the Bohemian Market during this time, you can expect to find numerous special guests, great food vendors, special drinks offered by the Pit Stop Diner, and numerous vendors from around the area who bring many unique arts, crafts, and services to the community.
The market’s current centrepiece sculpture is a chain saw carving that was created on site by artist Darren Jones earlier this summer and is currently part of a silent auction in support of the Moose Jaw & District Food Bank.
To participate in the silent auction, contact executive director Jason Moore by phone at 306-313-2757 or stop by the food bank during its regular business hours. The Moose Jaw & District Food Bank is located at 270 Fairford Street West.
Later this fall, the Bohemian Market will host its own ATV run which will be the first time the market will have hosted such an event and it’s expected to take place on or around Oct. 26 with a Halloween theme. Proceeds from the ATV run — as is typical for all events hosted by the market — will similarly go toward a charitable cause.
Next year, organizer Mike Beaudoin said he’s planning to expand the venue even further and the goal is to erect permanent structures in the near future.
“It’s blowing up big time,” he said. “People are already calling from all the way up in Yorkton for more information.”
For additional information, to apply as a vendor, or for further questions, contact Mike Beaudoin at .
The village of Mortlach is located around 30 minutes from Moose Jaw and the Bohemian Market is located right off the highway along the main approach to the village.
Further announcements are to be expected as the Meet Me in Mortlach initiative continues to unfold in the months to come.
