It is with great sadness that we are announcing the cancellation of Spring Market 2020. We have been keeping up-to-date with the CDC and Arkansas government officials guidelines concerning Covid-19. With the regulations as they stand, no more than 50 people can be at a large event at one time, everyone in attendance would have to maintain a 6ft distance, and numerous other rules we would have to abide to be within the state's mandates to host an event. As of now, we are still prepping and preparing for Mistletoe Market 2020 that is scheduled for November 6th and 7th. We hope to see you come out and support small businesses in your area and help them thrive in these unprecedented times.

“Due to concerns about the COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) the Arkansas Women’s Business Center has elected to postpone the 4th Annual Spring Market to June 27, 2020. The health and safety of our vendors, attendees, and community is the AWBC’s top priority. We expect full attendance and participation in June. Next year’s Spring Market is expected to return in March 2021”.
