WHY IS SAN JOSÉ MADE DOING AN EVENT IN FOSTER CITY?

In 2019, 2022 and 2023, we were part of the event through our sister company Moveable, curating and placing food trucks at the event on both Saturday and Sunday. We saw first-hand how big and how significant of a community event this is for the Foster City / San Mateo County area so we're truly excited to be able to curate and create the artist & maker market again for this year's Foster City Summer Days event. The initial plan was to temporarily take over the vendor marketplace duties while our friends at SF Etsy–the original curator of the artist & maker vendor marketplace in 2019–were on sabbatical from doing events. However, as their sabbatical from doing events continues through present day, we will continue to create the vendor marketplace at each Foster City Summer Days.
