The famous Canton Flea Market attracts artisans nationally to showcase handcrafted items such as pottery, jewelry, and unique arts & crafts. This bi-annual event attracts over 1,100 superior artists and craftsmen to within walking distance of the downtown area, who display their work on the beautiful grounds of the historic Madison County Courthouse and throughout the surrounding area.

The artists and craftsmen who participate in the flea market are chosen by sponsors via applications and appear by invitation only. All items sold by vendors are required to be handmade or partially handmade by the vendor.
