Hi, my name is Angie and I am the co-curator of the newest and soon to be
best curated makers market of art and design, products and services.
The Market is a new place to find wares designed, crafted, grown or
published from a broad community of creative makers including many at The
Old American Can Factory.
The Market is located in the restored 5000 square foot garage of The (OA)
Can Factory, an historic industrial complex that is a curated haven to
over 200 artisans, artists, designers, publishers and non-profit
organizations. The Market accompanies other cultural venues including
Rooftop Films and Issue Project Room.
The building borders Park Slopes west side and it's a short downhill walk on Third street from Smith street in Carroll Gardens. So come out this Sunday and help is ring in the soon to be best Market Brooklyn's ever seen. I mean to be frank about it. (smiles)
See the website and check out the list of Makers who are already signed up. See you[/size] Sunday! [/size]

So really you mean Gowanus has its very own Market?

Can you please post the website?

I came past there yesterday and saw a building painted green. Is that the new market?

I think I walked past this today. Looked neat but I had my dog with me so didn't go in. I'll put some pics from the sidewalk in the flickr pool for the top of brooklynian soon.

Looked like a neat idea and a very cool space and neat stuff. I'd love to go back and take some more pictures.

It's a cool space and had some nice stuff but I think they'll need more vendors for it to be successful.
