Sunday Street Market at Eastern Market Detroit

No comments:
June 1st was the launch of the Sunday Street Market at Detroits historic Eastern Market.

Featuring:  "local items such as home goods, art, jewelry, clothing,  Michigan-made products, antiques, and furniture..."

My daughter helped me set up the tables and display the art. We had a great time meeting new people and seeing friends that happened to be shopping the new market. Being an artist, I love to make gifts or buy handmade gifts for my friends and family and this new Sunday Street Market is such a great place to find something unique.


The Sunday Street Market runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. every Sunday starting June 1st and running through September 28th

We plan to be there most Sundays - so come and say 'hi'!



Daily Visual Journal : Daily Gratitude - joy, stories, connections

No comments:
Saturday was a wonderful day all around and I am so grateful to share in the joy my kids experience - they are so happy.





On Sunday I met a lot of people at Eastern Markets new Sunday Street Market - lots if local vendors selling (mostly) handmade products. I am grateful that people are willing to share their stories with me and that they are interested in hearing mine. 



Today a great connection was made in art therapy - one of those days that reminds us why we do what we do. I'm grateful that I was able to see it happen.
