For the first time, a holiday market is popping up in Chinatown. The non-profit Welcome to Chinatown is transforming the second floor of Canal Street's Kam Man Market into a month-long holiday market featuring more than 35 AAPI-owned retail and food vendors.
The festive market will celebrate Chinatown's brick-and-mortars. Featured vendors include the streetwear brand DAWANG, children's books creators The ABC Digest, It's Ahn-Thu Ceramics and Favor Coffee. Plus, a different pop-up will take over each weekend serving treats all day long. A percentage of benefits will support Welcome to Chinatown's mission to ensure Chinatown remains open as a beacon of cultural and economic resilience.
The market will be open every Friday through Sunday from 12-6pm from November 21 until December 21 on the second floor of Kam Man Market (200 Canal Street).
