Main Street in Smithers was closed to vehicle traffic on July 19 and opened to artisans, musicians, and downtown businesses for shopping, family-friendly events, and activities. There were also sidewalk sales, a kid zone, and wagon rides.

The Town, along with the Proton Foundation, started doing the markets again last year with the aim to support community-based participation in arts and culture, social services, and community economic development. Last year's markets were deemed a pilot project and the Town felt they were successful enough to do them again this summer.
