Celebrate Community. Support Art. Shop Local. 

Twice a year, Shreveport Metropolitan Ballet celebrates the remarkable talent of our community by pairing our ballet performances with a curated marketplace. Our Nutcracker Market and SMB Spring Market bring together a carefully selected collection of local makers, designers, artists, boutiques, and small businesses.

Both markets are free to the public and independent of our ballet performances.
