Indie Designer Pop-Up Shop in Chelsea Market

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Those who live or work near the Chelsea Market know what a time suck it can be. Sure it’s a little heavy on the tourist side but the culinary finds inside are well worth it. As someone who used to commute through it everyday, I also know it can be a great place to score free samples and check out constant rotating events.

From June 22-27, the Independent Designer Pop-Up Shop will be taking over a sprawling event space inside the market.  While there’s a lot of “indie” markets that tend to spring up during the summer, this one is on a much smaller and curated scale featuring everything from handmade jewelry to natural skincare, summer dresses, and much more. While I might barf if I see anything with “a bird on it“, the selection here is fresh and doesn’t necessarily scream “traveling Etsy shop”.

You can see the full list of local New York vendors HERE, and check out the newly opened section of the Highline while you’re there. It’s ok to be a tourist sometimes.

Independent Designer Pop-Up Shop
June 22-27th
11:00am-8:00pm
Chelsea Market
9th Ave -10th Ave
At W 15th -W 16th St [Chelsea]

Laura S, left the "sixth borough" three years ago to settle in Brooklyn. After working at some daily rags, she now does writing on the side but still eats more Ramen then necessary. When she's not moving residences every 6 months, eating her way through every neighborhood, and trying every microbrew known to man, she is unsuccessfully rediscovering home economics. With her binging days behind her, she's now exploring new projects and rediscovering the city that she loves (although is still prone to sliding on her knees during a Prince karaoke set).
