At Essex Market, we host a wide variety of events and programs that celebrate food, education and community.
The majority of Essex Market events take place in our state-of-the-art demonstration and teaching kitchen, aptly named Essex Kitchen. Our classes and special events are specially curated to appeal to a diverse range of ages, abilities and interests. Many of our programs are free and open to the public.
If you’re interested in bringing a group to the market, partnering with us on an event, or want to rent event space at Essex Market, please contact us.
