Cool Sh*t Happens
A collaborative venture between eight Wellington makers and designers.
Overview
PSA: Christmas is less than 100 sleeps away. If that sends you into a mild panic, take a deep breath and keep reading.
Taking over 134 Vivian Street for the next eight weeks, the Cool Sh*t Happens Pop-Up store could be the answer to all your Christmas shopping needs.
A collaborative venture between eight Wellington makers and designers, this is a market with a distinctly millennial twist — the creative folk behind it are in their late teens and 20s and met through Facebook. Joining forces to showcase their art and bust some millennial myths in the process, the artists are out to prove that young people can make shit happen and are hoping they'll to inspire others to do the same.
From plants to pooch couture, wind sculptures to wall hangings, you'll find an eclectic range of handmade crafts and curios for sale.
So, if you're wanting to pick up some nifty gifts and get a head start on your Christmas shopping, this could be just the ticket. Support local talent and coast into the silly season, stress free. That sounds like win-win to me.
Open seven days a week until 11 November.
