The weather is not cooperating! After the May 7th postponement due to rain, the May 14th market has been cancelled… due to rain. Van Ness Main Street is talking to vendors and trying for a June date, to be announced.
An impressive group of area artists, artisans and makers will be popping up at Van Ness Main Street’s first spring pop-up market on Saturday, May 14th.
They’ll be setting up shop outside of 4340 Connecticut Avenue from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the site of VNMS’s successful and popular Art All Night and holiday pop-up markets.
