June Issue: Outdoor Markets Come to the County

Wildcliff Thing

"Taking place on the grounds of Wildcliff Manor—along the banks of the Sound Shore and in the shadow of the Gothic Revival residence—local and regional artists have set up booths to showcase their ceramics, paintings, jewelry, photography, woodwork, glass crafts, and mixed-media artwork. It’s the opposite of the mall: many items are one-of-a-kind, and you actually get to talk to the artists who made them.

'It’s very similar to Brooklyn’s artsy markets in Fort Greene, Williamsburg, and DUMBO,' says Eric Woodlin of Incoming Tide Entertainment, which also put on a music series and a comedy series at the site. (Performing artists will also provide a soundtrack to your shopping.) The Wildcliff Art Market will run through September 10."
