The Market

Hey, check this out! Are you interested in great hair, clothing, art, home decorating, music, antiques, gifts, hobbies, food, jewelry or hard-to-find items? All in one building over 50 entrepreneurs have organized to provide their talents and products. Come to get your hair styled and find the accessories to match your wardrobe. Maybe even a brand new custom-made wardrobe. Perhaps even one with Afro-centric flair -- right down to the shoes. At The Market even the jewelry can be custom-made to your liking.

There’s a lot more! Once you “cure your ailments” in the herbal store, you might be ready for lunch. They’ve got food too, and they didn’t skip dessert. That means pastries, pies, ice cream, and cakes. And they didn’t forget the coffee.

Once you’ve improved yourself, you might shop for kids’ clothing or shop for the home. Custom window treatments, custom framing, African and Egyptian art, novelty items and antiques are only a small sampling of items that have passed through these doors. Stock is changing all the time, so this might have to be a weekly trip. You could even come for art or hair braiding classes.

Once you and your home are transformed, you’ll probably want to show it all off. Why not with a party? Music, scented candles, gowns, balloons and invitations can be found here. And parties might lead to . . . weddings. They can be planned here too. Silk flowers, wedding invitations, lingerie, even the bridal purse.
