🤝 Why This Event Matters
The Colfax Bazaar is more than just a vintage market—it’s part of a larger effort to revitalize our historic mountain town. This event is proudly supported by the Historic Colfax Downtown Association.
Our mission is to breathe new life into downtown Colfax by honoring its history, uplifting its people, and creating spaces where community can truly take root. Colfax is a town built on grit and rooted in history — a place where stories still matter. We believe that meaningful revitalization happens when those stories are preserved, when neighbors are connected, and when every person feels like they are part of that legacy. Through this work, we aim to transform Colfax into a bustling, connected, and economically strong hub in Placer County.
