We are a community of remarkably talented artisans, makers, designers and craftspeople on an inspired, twinkling, forested, horseshoe-shaped isle in the middle of the sea ~ the gem of a destination that is Orcas Island in Washington State's San Juan Islands.

Birthed during a time of darkness during the depths of the pandemic on a remote island in the Pacific Northwest, we created Solstice Mercantile out of a pure love for celebrating the light in all of us and our ability to create. This experiential holiday market is an invitation to dance with joy as you're surrounded by the beauty of creatives and allow your senses to feast upon all that is plentiful and true.

We believe in community first. We believe in the relentless pursuit of beauty and love in this life. We believe in the vision and the craft. We believe in the experience and then a little more experience. We believe in the highest good. We believe in championing the light we see in others. We believe in having a really really really really good time.
