Melrose Trading Post at Fairfax High School

Melrose Trading Post is a program of Greenway Arts Alliance, a community-based nonprofit organization whose mission is to unite communities.

Every Sunday, the Melrose Trading Post offers a continuously evolving experience, including a curated selection of handcrafted artisan goods, eclectic arts and crafts, vintage fashion, antique furniture and countless one-of-a-kind treasures. The popular weekly market raises much needed funding for Fairfax High School arts and leadership programming.
