OXNARD — The Community Market at Oxnard College, which operates every Sunday on the Oxnard College campus, will be closed until further notice. It will reopen as soon as public health orders allow. The closure follows the guidelines from the California Department of Public Health, which recommends increasing social distancing to reduce the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
Over 150 vendors sell fresh produce, pre-packaged food, household products, appliances, tools, plants, arts/crafts, antiques/collectibles, toys, shoes, jewelry/accessories, cosmetics, and other items. Credits will be provided to vendors who have already paid for booth space.
The public can contact Connie Owens, Oxnard College Foundation, at cowens@vcccd.edu with questions. Questions from vendors should be directed to Maria Olivares, C.M. office manager, at maria_olivares2@my.vcccd.edu
