(Monroe, LA) Downtown Monroe is gearing up for a vibrant spring morning as The River Market returns Saturday, May 9, from 9 AM to 1 PM, at 316 S. Grand Street, Monroe, LA 71201.

With the Ouachita River as its backdrop, the market offers a lively open-air experience in the heart of downtown featuring local art, handmade items and more. Visitors can also enjoy a variety of food options, including food trucks and vendor offerings, while browsing unique, locally made goods.

This month’s market is ideal for seasonal shopping and finding thoughtful gifts ahead of Mother’s Day.
