ABOUT DOUBLE TAKE’S POP-UP MARKET

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

The market is designed to offer a welcoming space for local artists, creatives, and small 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.
