ABOUT DOUBLE TAKE’S POP-UP MARKET

Double Take’s Pop-Up Market is a temporary event space where local artists, creatives, and micro-business owners can display and sell their handmade products, artwork, and services.

Held monthly at Double Take’s Thrift Store in our dedicated Pop-Up Market space, with the plan on expanding the event to occur bi-monthly.

Double Take’s Pop-Up Market is designed to offer a welcoming space for local artists, creatives, and micro-business owners who are new to in-person markets or have limited market experience, giving them the opportunity to sell their products directly to customers for the first time.

The event is free for visitors and vendors too! There are no vendor fees!
