That’s right! Our Holiday Handmade Cavalcade markets aren’t just a great opportunity for you to experience the thrill of finding the perfect present for someone you love. They’re also a chance to treat yourself!

To begin with, we never charge admission to browse our markets. We think you should be able to enjoy meeting our makers and seeing what they have to offer without having to pay for the privilege. We know you’ll find treasures at their tables!

If you’re an early bird, you could go home with something much better than a worm! On each market day, we’ll reward the first buyers with goody bags valued at a whopping $70! Full of handmade treats, they’re sure to bring you comfort and joy. You might find yourself leaving with chocolate, luxury yarn, tickets to local museums, art supplies, jewelry, skincare products, and more!

*Just a few of the goodies that will be there!*

But no matter when you arrive at our markets, you could still be a winner (we think you’re all winners, really)! Each time you make a purchase, you’ll get another entry (one per vendor per market) in one of two themed raffle drawings per event. More shopping at more markets from more makers equals more chances to win!

These extravagant collections of merchandise from New York Handmade Collective members and our amazing sponsors (Blick Art Materials, Purl Soho yarn shop, Fine & Raw chocolate, and The Rubin Museum) have been curated into tempting themes - For the Fashionista (2 of these!), For The Home, Foodie Fanatic, Kids Korner, and Inner Artist. They’ll be awarded at the conclusion of each Cavalcade market, and we know you want to shop early to make sure you have the best selection, so you need not be present to win.

Supporting local makers has never been so rewarding! We’ll see you on November 24th and 25th at The Invisible Dog in Brooklyn for our Small Business Saturday event, from December 3rd-9th at Chelsea Market, and on December 15th and 16th at the Brooklyn Historical Society.
