Saturday-Sunday. Holidays markets are already in full swing across Colorado even before you’ve had your Thanksgiving dinner. One of the most interesting ones is the Firefly Handmade Market, which will take over the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Nov. 12-13.

You’ll find more than “creatively curated artisans,” according to the Downtown Boulder Partnership, which sponsors the event, filling the mall’s blocks with “local, handmade craft, art, and design in a festive setting.” There will also be live music from Dollhouse Thieves, Bear & the Beasts and Spencer Crawford. All the shops on the mall will be open as well. The event is free to attend and you can get a list of the vendors at fireflyhandmade.com.
