Buy/ Sell Red Hook event this weekend!

Red Hook Economic Development (RHED) Fall Event!

BUY/SELL RED HOOK* What is it? Neighborhood Sidewalk Sale and Flea Market When? Sunday, October 3, 10am-4pm Where? In order to create a cohesive event, we recommend concentrating activity both along Van Brunt Street (sidewalk sales) and in the PS 15 schoolyard (flea market). You choose where. $10 will secure you an ~10x10 space in the schoolyard - note that school restrooms will be accessible during the day. To reserve your space contact info@redhooked.org. Spaces are limited. Who can SELL? Local residents, businesses, and community groups are welcome. Why BUY/SELL? You know the old adage, "one man's trash is another man's treasure." How to BUY/SELL? Begin your mission by sorting through your closets, book shelves, drawers, trunks, toy boxes, and basement. Next, SELL off all those neglected, unwanted, outgrown, ill-begotten items. Then you'll have room to BUY your neighbor's goods. (Hmm, perhaps we should just call this a swap meet?!) Would you prefer to just donate items? Falconworks Artists Group is accepting items to re-SELL at the flea market. Proceeds will benefit this local nonprofit's community work. To make arrangements contact Chris Hammett at 347-731-1379 or chris@falconworks.com. To learn more about Falconworks visit www.falconworks.com. What to do next? Please send RHED a brief email response if you are participating. info@redhooked.orgWe'd appreciate knowing how, where, and anything else you'd care to share. This will help RHED's efforts in describing/promoting the day's event. e.g., it's great to promote the number of individual participants, as well as describe any special food/merchandise that businesses are selling from their sidewalks, etc Get creative, have fun, make a few bucks, and don't forget to invite all your non-local friends to BUY in Red Hook on October 3. * Many thanks to PS 15 Principal Peggy Wyns-Madison for making the school yard available.
