One more weekend until the Brooklyn Indie Market opens on Smith Street at Union in Carroll Gardens/Cobble Hill, Brooklyn. We walked by there the other day and saw the old red and white stalls that were put up for book vendors ages ago. Now, they’re part of the Brooklyn Indie Market, which opens ON SATURDAY MAY 5th. The market will be there May through December rain or shine. Here’s the info from Kathy Malone, director of the market and a designer in her own right.

Dear Designers, Creators and Shoppers,

I am very pleased to announce that Brooklyn Indie Market
  has a permanent, weekly market in the tents on Smith
  Street and Union Street every Saturday and Sunday,
  starting May 5th and May 6th throughout the year.
  Johanna of Daisyhead
and I, will open its "doors" to the public and will heartily advertise
to the press, media, blogs, and have many social media tools such as a
flickr account etc. We will also have flyers and a postcard distributer
and of course our BrooklynIndieMarket website. The location on the
corner of Smith and Union Streets is adjacent to Eckerd, PS 58 and
steps from the Carroll F/G subway stop. We have big plans to beautify
our corner with lots of plants and fabulous shopping!

Vendors: The price per spot is $50 inside the tent and the 3 kiosks on Smith St. will be $60 each. Just email us at info@brooklynindiemarket.com and I will let you know if there is availability and how to reserve a spot.
This is my dream come true and what I have been working towards for several years so I hope to make it a success for all of us!
Feel free to fire those questions, suggestions, recommendations away!

Very happily yours,
Kathy
