Artists & Fleas Celebrates 1-Year Anniversaries of Locations in Chelsea Market and Downtown Los Angeles Arts District in May
NEW YORK, May 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Artists & Fleas, Williamsburg, Brooklyn's pioneering weekend market and long-time incubator of independent artists, designers and vintage collectors, celebrates 1-year anniversaries this month in its permanent location inside NYC's Chelsea Market on May 7th and in the Downtown Los Angeles (DTLA) Arts District on May 16 & 17. Artists & Fleas continues to curate a unique, selected showcase of local creative talent in fashion, design, art, vintage, music and food.
"The response to the two new markets over the past 12 months from shoppers, small business entrepreneurs and the broader creative community that we help incubate has been overwhelming and encouraging," said Ronen Glimer, co-founder of Artists & Fleas. "Both LA's Arts District and the area around Chelsea Market are surging in popularity and teeming with culture and people on both coasts are finding that the combination of both variety and artistic quality coupled with the market vibe and experience that we're about makes for a thrilling alternative to traditional retail."
Artists & Fleas will be celebrating 1-year anniversaries with entertainment guests, vendor discounts and giveaways from 6-9pm on May 7th at Chelsea Market and throughout the weekend on May 16th & 17th in LA's Arts District at 647 Mateo Street, where it will host over 75 vendors and food and mobile merch trucks. Artists & Fleas recently expanded its mainstay indoor location on North 7th Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and now hosts 100 independent sellers every weekend, all year long.
