La Placita is an open Market at Bethany Park.

It features vendors, entertainment, and the opportunity for members of the community to connect. La Placita is an open-door venue for community members to explore their ability to produce and commercialize any given product without the pressure of major upfront investment. Within La Placita's operations, each vending start-up is guided and prompted to engage in learning the commercialization of products and services. Product presentation, market analysis and forward planning are imbedded in the process for learning how to build a path to financial success.
