🎄 Lewis Chapel Community Holiday Mountain Market Launches in Dunlap with Waived Vendor Fees

The Lewis Chapel Community Center is opening its doors to a seasonal marketplace designed to connect local artisans, crafters, and shoppers during the holiday season. The initiative reflects a growing effort in the Sequatchie Valley to support small vendors and keep holiday spending rooted in the community.

📍 Event Details & Location

The Lewis Chapel Community Holiday Mountain Market will take place on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM CST at the Lewis Chapel Community Center, located at 4760 Henson Gap Rd, Dunlap, TN 37327. The event will run rain or shine, with both indoor and outdoor vendor spaces available to accommodate the anticipated crowd. 🌧️

🎁 What to Expect

Shoppers will find local goods and handmade crafts spanning the holiday season-from Thanksgiving through New Year’s. The market is designed as a one-stop destination for those seeking unique, locally-made items rather than mass-produced alternatives. The festive atmosphere, enhanced by the seasonal focus, aims to create a community gathering space during a busy time of year. ✨

💼 Vendor Opportunity: No Fees Through Year-End

To encourage participation and support small business owners, the Lewis Chapel Community Center is waiving all vendor fees through December 31, 2026. This incentive removes a significant barrier for local artisans, farmers, and small-scale producers who might otherwise hesitate to participate. Interested vendors can message the community center’s Facebook page or stop by during market hours to learn more about securing a spot. 🤝

🌱 Community Mission

The market’s tagline-“Shop Local • Support Small • Grow Our Community”-underscores the broader purpose behind the event. By creating a dedicated space for local vendors and encouraging residents to shop within the community, the initiative aims to strengthen economic ties and foster relationships between makers and buyers in the Sequatchie Valley area. 💪
