The 5th International Women's Day Market brings together women from many cultures, backgrounds and practices.
The market began with traditional South Asian dances, followed by a forum composing of women who hold prominent places in Utah government, business and news.
It was hosted by KSL 5 news anchor Tamara Vaifanuta.
"There's a fear that paralyzes me, like wow do I belong here?" Vaifanuta said.
Representative Verona Mauga was also in attendance.
"Yes, I do belong here and more people like me also belong here," Mauga said.
The forum focused on confronting issues that women in Utah face today, and how to be active in local governance.
Jeanine Revillo attended the event and was selling her jewelry.
"I've loved being able to come to these type of events and supporting other women of color especially," Revillo said.
Following the forum, the market opened with many women entrepreneurs selling their wares.
There was jewelry, books, clothing, art, multiple skin and health care products and a taste of international foods.
One local artist, Mia Escobar, was there selling her art.
"That power and sense of community with my friends and my girlfriends, and that level of connection and supporting each other and helping each other get to where we should've been," Escobar said.
Organizers focused on not just on selling their wares but creating a community.
