Chippendale Markets
The newest addition to your weekend ritual is this petite and curated market. Stall offerings range from natural skincare to garden accessories, sustainable fashion, flowers and jewellery. You can even pick up some locally created art and watch live music performances.
Overview
Before Chippendale was home to Coopers distillery, and well before it was the home to the high-rise precinct Central Park, Chippendale was rife with crime and poverty. Today, the inner-city suburb has undergone gentrification: factories are interlaced with hip cafes, art galleries are interspersed with bars and converted warehouses sit alongside terrace housing.
As if to herald the neighbourhood's arrival, Kaleidoscope Gallery and Soma Studios have joined forces to create a local curated mini-market in Chippendale. The keyword here being curated; you're inside the iconic red doors of the Kaleidoscope Gallery, but this time you can actually touch the displays (except for the food — that would be awkward).
Stall offerings range from natural skincare to garden accessories, sustainable fashion, flowers and jewellery. Being in an art gallery and all, you can even pick up some locally created art and watch live music performances.
The markets are on hold as organisers wait for approval to extend the event into the laneway next door the gallery.
