What the Greenmarket does for locally-grown food products, the Artisan Market does for local art and design.
|
|
|
Since its debut six years ago the Artisan Market has provided a much-needed venue for local artists and designers to show and sell their wares in an easily accessible and popular location. Located adjacent to the Greenmarket on the DeKalb Avenue side of Fort Greene Park, the Artisan Market creates a veritable outdoor sidewalk gallery showing a wide range of functional and collectible art and design items. Artists personally display and sell only their own original creations. Added to the benefit of purchasing a well crafted original, one also has the opportunity to talk to the artist about how their piece was made.

|
You’ll find no fleas on us. Only independent design, crafts and fine arts are presented for sale at Artisan-Market, our weekly fundraiser for the Fort Greene Park Conservancy. Artisan-Market is located on the DeKalb Avenue sidewalk perimeter adjacent to the year-round Fort Greene GreenMarket. Our opening day is Saturday, April 19, 2008. On April 26 there will be a special focus on Earth Day.
