"Browse through a diverse selection of vinyl records and themed art while sipping on your favorite Soundgrowler beer," said organizer John Streetz, head of the Streetz Artz Alliance.

The group is also curating unique artists to enhance the event's offerings.

Participating artist Jonathan Grimm worked up some special items for the Vinyl Market, and said in a release that he's excited for "the exclusive return of my guitar tab portraits!

"Each piece is made on an actual sheet of guitar tab or sheet music I rip out of book," Grimm said. "These are all one of a kind, so get there early to snag yours!"

Grimm advised these are $40 each or three for $100.
