Due to some unforeseen delays, the plaque installation won’t be completed in time for the originally scheduled event on Saturday, April 26. We will announce the new event date soon!

In partnership with local historian Alyssa McClanahan, we uncovered the long-running histories of 31 buildings in the Market District and created permanent plaques for each one—so you can explore these stories anytime you visit Findlay Market.

To celebrate, we’ll be hosting five guided tours and offering a self-guided tour option throughout the afternoon to dive deeper into the buildings' unique histories.

Please note: The guided tours will take place simultaneously, so we recommend choosing the one that interests you most. Due to time constraints, it won’t be possible to visit all 31 buildings during a single tour.

Be on the lookout for additional tours offered after this weekend, as well as a self-guided tour option—all of which will be listed here: https://www.findlaymarket.org/tours
