A unique holiday market kicked off in Wilton Saturday as the highly anticipated Marché market transformed the WEPCO Complex into a bustling bazaar of artisanal goods and holiday cheer.

The event also featured small businesses for Small Business Saturday, presenting an opportunity for residents and visitors to support their community while discovering one-of-a-kind gifts just in time for the holidays.

"Coming out there, getting people together, having them meet the artists...and just finding a way to connect with someone and be inspired. And it's so great to bring this to the town of Wilton," said Katie Nelson, co-founder of Marché.

A portion of the proceeds from Saturday's sales will be donated to provide meals and gifts for Wilton families in need during the holiday season.
