Accessibility

GJAC, the market's own parking area, has 23 accessible spaces, and the organizer says every city lot and deck downtown has designated accessible parking, shown on the city's interactive parking map. The market itself sits on a paved asphalt surface, which the organizer says drains rain, and it stays open in all weather unless there is a safety concern. Rideshare drop-off at Bicentennial Plaza is the closest point to the stalls for anyone who cannot manage the half-mile walk from GJAC.
