The Trashy Holiday Market 2024

We can turn back time,
hit rewind,
and give used stuff back its shine.

Get your junk and funk on at Trashy Holiday Market!

Featuring ingenious local artisans who work their magic to turn almost-trash into one-of-a-kind wonders. Plus, enjoy other waste-less activities and creative reuse crafts.

There is no better way to show love for our one-and-only planet and each other than to gather together as a community. We have *nowhere* else to go, so let’s go *nowhere* together.

Support 35+ eco- & socially-conscious local businesses offering an array of uniquely upcycled, hand-crafted wares, like home goods, planters, art, fashion, bath & body and more. Plus, more hands-on, trashy activities for all ages.

Join FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 4pm-8pm for our Reverse Black Friday party. Hit the back button on consumption. Come craft, swap, reuse, shop, groove, bop and material drop.

Re-join SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 30, noon-5pm for full-on Small Business Saturday vibes. Shop our creative makers and stroll along Lincoln Ave to check off all your gifty must-haves.

This is a free, all-ages event hosted at three amazing indoor locations within one block in Northcenter, Chicago.
Mrs Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro 3905 N Lincoln Ave
Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream 1943 West Byron Street
FREE MVMT Shop 3868 N Lincoln Ave
