Tamarack Marketplace

Tamarack Marketplace is an artisanal center in Beckley organized in a circular layout with galleries, studios, and retail spaces for handmade goods. The complex also includes a restaurant and provides space for regional artists to display their work.

Tamarack Marketplace was founded in 1996 by the West Virginia Parkways Authority as a state-supported initiative to promote local artisans. Its opening marked an important step in the region's economic development.

The marketplace displays work from artists across all 55 West Virginia counties, including wood crafts, glass works, textiles, pottery, and metal pieces. These regional handmade traditions shape what you see when walking through the space.

The marketplace is located at Interstate 64 Exit 45, making it easy to reach by car with ample parking available. Daily operations from morning to evening provide flexibility for when you visit.

Five permanent artist studios within the complex allow visitors to watch craftspeople working, particularly on weekends during spring and fall. This direct encounter with the creative process sets it apart from typical retail spaces.
