Sunday: Makers Market Rocks!

Over at the American Can Factory, that artist loft building on Third Avenue and Third Street in Park Slope/Gowanus, the Makers Market is getting better and better.

Today there’s a farmer’s market in addition to an unusual selection of artisans selling jewelry, knitware, home goods and other items. I loved the rings made of vintage buttons, shells and other baubles by DanaMade (pictured above) and the spiral hoop earrings by Franco.

There was also an interesting vocal/electric piano, bass and drum trio playing cool music. As always, a woman sells homemade lunches and coffee in the back of the space.

Oh yeah: I bought some Indian simmer sauce and Red Lenti, Bulgur & Mint Soup from Calcutta Kitchens, who makes specialties from India.

Every Sunday 11AM until 5PM
