Closing Bell: Furniture Fest + One-Time CG Flea

It’s looking like the weather should co-operate for the kick-off of the month-long Furniture Fest being organized by Greenjeans at The Flea this Sunday. Every Sunday in October, 5 or 6 furniture designers (most of which are Brooklyn-based, like 4Korners whose credenza is featured above) will be featured in their own “pod” at the Flea. For a complete list of the furniture makers, click here. If you’re looking to get your flea market fix on Saturday, check out the event being hosted by the PS 58 PTA tomorrow on Carroll Street between Smith and Court; there will more than 30 vendors and what the organizers describe as a “mega stoop sale.” Check it out!

The Brooklyn Flea runs on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 176 Lafayette Avenue in Brooklyn; no bikes or dogs allowed in the market. Closest trains are the C and G to Washington/Clinton. You can also take any of the number of trains that go to Atlantic Station and walk up Lafayette Avenue from there. For more info, check out the Flea Blog.
