Saturday Market: pasta to pottery
By Hank Trotter
Ot the Emerald
Does the prospect of another
Saturday sitting in front of the
dorm television have you bored?
Then how about a sampling of
everything from pasta and pizza
to pottery and pillows, all hand
made with a commitment to
quality
You'll find it at downtown
Eugene's Saturday Market,
located at Seventh Avenue and
Oak Street
At the county parking lot
turned marketplace, a typical
Saturday will find you tasting
delicious tempura vegetables
and calzoni pizza, with a
smoothie to wash it all down and
a tempting piece of cheesecake
for a finale
You can sit and enjoy the
scheduled reggae, jazz or folk
music and laugh at the antics of
spontaneous preformances of
mimes and jugglers
After a filling meal and rous
ing entertainment, some 200
colorful booths brimming with
handmade goods are lined up
for leisurely browsing
Then, a quick snack of quiche
before you walk across the
street to the Farmer's Market,
an offshoot of Saturday Market
There, local produce can be
purchased or free kittens picked
up
"It's a celebration of creativi
ty,” llene English, assistant
manager of the market, says of
Eugene's unique open air crafts
and foods fair
' Artisans can meet the con
sumer face to face,” English
says."The consumer can share
the excitement of the work with
it's creator.”
Begun in 1970 as a meeting
place for local craftspeople and
consumers, Saturday Market
has since grown into a tradition
with many successful offshoots.
English credits Saturday Market
for the drive behind Fifth Street
Public Market. Portland Satur
day Market, Blair Island res
taurant and many other busin
esses in Eugene
"Many of these hippies have
grown into respectable busin
essmen,” English says of the
market's original vendors
Though a broader range of
people are now beginning to
enjoy the Saturday Market s
pleasant sights, sounds and
smells, the market has left its
founding ideals intact Everyth
ing must still be handmade of
completely natural materials.
For the vendors, it’s a chance
to show their wares and to
socialize with other artisans
“The market becomes like a
family," English says. "There is
a real good feeling that goes
around "
