Golden Makers Market Debuts in San Diego With Two-Day Celebration of AANHPI Creativity

A vibrant new marketplace is popping up in San Diego—and it’s all about community, culture, and craftsmanship. Golden Guide is launching its first-ever Golden Makers Market, taking over the SD Made Factory in East Village for a weekend celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) artistry and entrepreneurship.

Golden Makers Market

Shop, Connect, Create

Timed with AANHPI Heritage Month, the event brings together more than 20 AANHPI-owned brands, from jewelry and home goods to visual art and small-batch skincare.

You’ll find handcrafted goods from standout names like Casa Makulay, Little Yellow Jeepney, Nyoot, Moony Made, and more—plus exclusive offerings from SoCal-based illustrators, photographers, and designers.

Beyond the Market

Golden Makers Market also features a group art show themed Hiraya Manawari (Reach Your Dreams) and a full slate of workshops including ikebana flower arranging, Japanese tea tasting, roll-on perfume making, yoga, gua sha, and more.

Whether you’re into wellness, design, or hands-on creativity, there’s something for every curious soul.

See you there!

Support local. Celebrate culture. Meet the makers shaping San Diego’s creative future.
