An Indoor Spring Market Series in the Seaport: Three Weekends of Handmade, Sourced, and Seriously Good Finds

This May, two New York City staples, one rooted in local legacy, the other redefining downtown’s future, join forces for a curated indoor market experience.

Hester Street Fair, the beloved Lower East Side marketplace championing creative entrepreneurship since 2010, launches a fresh indoor series inside the soaring glass lobby of WSA (Water Street Associates) in the Seaport.

Over three weekends, from May 10 through May 25, this pop-up event kicks off a location-focused chapter for Hester Street Fair. Bringing rotating daily lineups of 20–30 vendors selling one-of-a-kind vintage, handmade design, fashion, beauty, home goods, and more.
