The Worcester Renaissance Market is more than just a marketplace—it’s a platform for culture, creativity, and commerce. To ensure maximum visibility, impact, and success for everyone involved, we’ve crafted a high-energy marketing campaign featuring:

✅ Multi-platform promotion across social media, email, print, and major media partners, including 97.9 Unity Radio, Discover Central Mass, Manny Jae Media, the Chamber of Commerce, and the billboard at Rockland Trust Plaza.
✅ Professional marketing assets provided to all vendors to boost engagement.
✅ Community outreach efforts to bring in foot traffic and potential customers.

Vendor Commitments 
To keep the energy high and the momentum strong, we ask that all selected vendors:

📲 Use the official event hashtags when posting:
