The Community Market will continue weekly through the summer and features a changing lineup of local makers, entertainment, kids activities and food vendors
The city of Washougal is thrilled to invite residents and visitors alike to the inaugural Community Market Pilot Program, launching Friday, July 18 from 2 to 6 p.m. at Reflection Plaza in the heart of downtown.
“We’re really looking forward to showcasing what the community has to offer,” said Rose Jewell, Community Engagement manager for the city of Washougal. “Come down, enjoy the weather, grab a bite, listen to some music, support local vendors — and maybe even check out one of our great downtown restaurants or take a walk on the dike. Just enjoy the area and make an afternoon of it.”
The Community Market will continue weekly through the summer and features a changing lineup of local makers, entertainment, kids activities and food vendors. Whether you’re looking to shop, snack, relax, or explore downtown, the market is designed to be a fun, laid-back way to start your weekend.

About the Community Market Pilot Program
The Washougal Community Market supports one of the City’s strategic goals: fostering a vibrant town center. This pilot program allows the City to evaluate interest, gather community feedback, and determine the feasibility of establishing a permanent, recurring market.
The initiative was inspired by growing community interest—including from council members, local farmers, and artisans — and guided in part by insights from Jordan Bolt, who previously directed a Washougal market and now leads Vancouver’s Market.
