About this Event

Normal New York presents the Not-A-Normal Residency at Union Square.

Following the opening of our Spring residency, Not-A-Normal returns this May with a continued takeover of Union Square, introducing entirely new vendor lineups each weekend.

This next phase of the residency is centered on discovery. Each weekend brings a fresh rotation of 50 vintage dealers, independent designers, and creative brands, transforming the space into an evolving marketplace where no two visits are the same.

From emerging designers to rare vintage and one-of-a-kind objects, May is about uncovering what’s new, what’s next, and what you won’t find again.
