The (Makers) Market
joined by the Park Slope Farmers Market at The (OA) Can Factory Sundays 11a-5p
The (Makers) Market at The Old American Can Factory is a new place to find art & wares designed and crafted by a broad community of locally-based individuals & organizations, including many who are working at The (OA) Can Factory.
The Makers are selected to meet criteria of: enduring design; high-quality materials & methods of fabrication; and, overall social accountability. By investing in an artisanal product acquired directly from the hands of the maker, you are able to learn about their unique approaches to bringing their artforms to life as well as get to know the maker as 'person'.
The Makers make The Market.
The (OA) Can Factory, an historic industrial complex in Gowanus, is a curated haven to more than 250 artists, artisans, designers, filmmakers, publishers and non-profit organizations. The Market joins other cultural venues based there including, Issue Project Room and Rooftop Films.
