Description

Specialties

Artists & Fleas is a weekly weekend market in the heart of Williamsburg Brooklyn where over 100 independent merchants set up, showcase and sell art, design, fashion, food and vintage clothing and houesewares. First established in 2003, Artists & Fleas has cultivated an international reputation amongst buyers, trend-​spotters and creative entrepreneurs as a place to showcase and discover what’s new and exciting in fashion, vintage, art, design, handmade local goods and more. Artists & Fleas moved to North 7th Street in the Fall of 2010, expanding and evolving in sync with a neighborhood that exploded over the past decade. The market is situated just a few blocks from the shops, bars and restaurants of bustling Bedford Avenue and the L train and steps from the Williamsburg waterfront, which hosts Smorgasburg and the Brooklyn Flea, every weekend through November.

History

Established in 2003.

In December 2003, we opened Artists & Fleas in an empty warehouse on N. 6th Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY. The market was established as a marketplace to bring together emerging artists, indie designers, vintage collectors and enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a place to show and sell together. As an alternative to a retail setting, the relaxed, but energized, environment offered a way for sellers to get feedback directly from shoppers and network with fellow creative folks.

Part community gathering spot, part hipster haven, Artists & Fleas has hosted thousands of artists and vendors since opening its doors. It’s a place where buyers find unique designs, artists and vintage collectors in an atmosphere that’s in the tradition of old world marketplaces with a firm foot in what is contemporary, original and hip.

Now in its 11th year, Artists & Fleas continues to build a cooperative community gathering place NY and can now be found in a monthly market in DTLA.

Brooklyn Flea rejects? Dated clothing (screen printed everything) and Portlandia style trinkets/​knick knacks (ex. clocks made out of vintage books).
The jewelry that is available is nice.

Love this place! I stop in any time I can. You never know what you will find but you know you will love it. The atmosphere is fun and the people working are great. Also you can find the best vintage.

Satisfaction, you can getyousome…
Around for many years, before Williamsburg became such a huge «thing», this spot intrigues.
A DJ spins GOOD records while you walk through this giant indoor space with a variety of stalls selling lovely home-​spun items made by hand with a solid personal touch.
Jewelry, body grooming products, clever garments, and many other fun things in between. I can always find a $ 20 prize to come home with, though it’s QUITE easy to spend a good deal more then that on yourself or for gifts to give. This is NOT L.L.Bean, this is L.L.Cool J back in the day.
Theres a location in Los Angeles CA too; I look forward to visiting in the future to see how East vs West Coast styles stack up.
PS: Small offering of food and frozen confections in front on the sidewalk in the summertime for a bite as you stroll, though no seating anywhere.

I love this place. The space itself to is large, filled with dozens of vendors, yet spacious with a nice flow. The single-​stall bathroom is large and clean. There are so many interesting crafts available here from vintage, recycled, and handmade clothing and jewelry, to borderline mad scientist creative j by «V,» which is a must try. You can find plenty of unique gifts (try the homemade, all-​natural, and affordable beauty products), old records, and other curious items here. It’s a wonderful place to kill a couple of hours, especially on a cold or rainy day.

Love this place! Lots of cool little bits of jewelry and artistic products (think etsy) that you can check out.
I also found this to be a fun place to check out with friends or on a date. It really gives other people that Brooklyn vibe.
They also play nice music and have more guyish things like records, watches, and money clips.

Yay! Brooklyn artists are so talented! I see the stamp «Made in Brooklyn» all over Etsy. Well here it is! The physical location of many vendors.
I love independent jewellery makers. The vendors here do not disappoint. The prices are decent in my opinion. Many affordable, some very pricey.
This market is huge! Rows and rows of vendors. Lots of jewellery, some men accessories, few t-​shirts than I hoped for. I didn’t find the clothing particularly interesting. OH AND A DJ!

A flea market located right across the Saturday smorgasburg so people usually go here after the binge. It’s a really unique trendy place which sells a bunch of stuff. The accessories here are really great but quite pricey. We got a couple of celebrity candles which is a good gift idea.

It’s a cute place to stop by if you happen to be in the area on a Sunday morning or afternoon. There are a bunch of vendors that produce high-​quality items, mostly jewelry, some clothes, and interesting prints. There is even a selfie-​camera near the door with some props, so you can document your stay there. Be area that this camera prints a photo for you, but the emailed version may take a few days to reach your inbox. Don’t despair.

Nice lil indoor flea market with diverse products. I really appreciated how even though it was small and kinda cramped people weren’t being pushy. And having an exploring toddler leading the way is always a surprise, but people embraced it. He always is a showstopper when we go out. Will be back, loved the necklaces they had.

Just a bunch of overpriced hipster fodder. You can probably find much nicer things just browsing Etsy. Very crowded and the vendors seem to sell very similar things. If you have nothing else to do, you can check it out. Also the lemonade stand outside sells super sour lemonade. Would not recommend.

This place is fun! It is far from a «flea market» but a good place to visit when spending time in Williamsburg. A good way to meet some local artists as well and there are often different stands on Saturday versus Sunday. I like to bring family and friends here when they are visiting from out of town to expose them to some of the charm of this neighborhood.
There are a ton of similar jewelry stands so it’s worth it to check if they use gold plated versus gold filled (huge difference) since often lower prices means the less durable plated version. Although this place looks like a typical flea market the prices would certainly suggest otherwise. My mother and I were looking at some of the clothes at one stand and although they were in good condition I was surprised that a cotton kaftan was priced at $ 150.
Most BK fleas are now on the pricier end where you won’t find much of a deal, but this one in particular is a unique fave of mine.
Also, just my personal opinion: Metal Taboo is edgy and unique, but I find it disturbing when people try to make money of of something as critical and difficult as cancer. Your overpriced «F*ck Cancer» plates are depressing. Have a soul.

I came here on a Saturday after noon, and it was pretty crowded. The market is indoor, and it’s full of vendors selling basically all sorts of stuff ranging from accessories to clothes to vinyl records. Every vendor is unique and their products are sort of hippie and statement pieces, very representative of the Williamsburg culture. Some of them only take cash, so make sure you bring some with you instead of using the ATM in the market (it has a $ 2.50 transaction fee). One downside is that some of the stuff is very pricey and you can probably get them on Etsy for a cheaper price. Of course, if you want to buy something as a souvenir, this place is for that. It is a nice spot to take pictures too!

As soon as you go in the market to your left there’s these 2 dudes selling horrible leather products. They stare at you up and down with judgmental eyes. They’re called «the flying sayre» anyways there’s a dude there that sells cool Pop culture hats,
Another one sells nice brooklyn t shirts.
There’s also a girl that screen prints images on maps it’s really cool

This place is boring and filled with junk. I’d rather go shopping in someone’s attic.

great place to stop by if you’re in the area. They have a bunch of shops with all sorts of things, clothes, accessories, vintage stuff, custom made items. It’s a good place to kill some time and explore what local artists are making.

My friend and I were in the neighborhood and checked out this cool indoor flea market on a Saturday afternoon. I was shocked how crowded it was because we were literally bumping into people and just trying to take in all the merchandise. They have a lot of cool vendors but a lot of the vendors didn’t sell flea market priced items.(some were on the expensive side). I did buy a cute necklace with a NYC pendant that had my two favorite boroughs (Brooklyn&Queens) representing. If I’m in the area I would check out this spot again.
