This Upper West Side year-round bazaar is one of NYC’s oldest and largest marketplaces. Every Sunday, all year round, indoors and outdoors, up to 200 local merchants – local artists, designers, and antique/vintage dealers – come together to sell one-of-a-kind and limited edition art, antique watches, vintage collectables and fashion, handmade jewellery and furniture. Some market days have special themes – art, food or homewares for example. See the website’s events page for what’s on, when.
There’s a strong social mission to the market. As well as providing a much-needed, affordable outlet for local artists and artisans, 100% of Grand Bazaar NYC’s profits are donated to four local public schools, benefiting over 2,000 children.
