Every spring, the SIU Civil Service Council hosts an Annual Flea Market to benefit the Education Assistance Fund for scholarships to be issued to eligible dependents of SIU Civil Service employees who attend SIU. The flea market is held at the SIU Arena parking lot on the last Saturday in April or first Saturday in May. It offers shoppers the opportunity to find those unique items for themselves or even that person who is difficult to buy for.

The 2023 Annual Flea Market will be April 22 (rain date April 23). Proceeds benefit the Education Assistance Fund. We're looking forward to a great year!
