Attention artists/crafters - Maplewood pop-up co-op for the holidays? If you're interested, comment below. Once I get 10 "heck yeahs", I'll start a FB group. You don't have to live in Maplewood. But you'd need to visit once a week... xo

I learned yesterday the BANG may not be held this year. All the more reason to push for a pop-up coop for the holiday season. I don't have any craft ware to sell but would definitely visit as a customer. Here's hoping you can do this.

No. I heard this from the instructor of the watercolor painting class I took at 1978 yesterday. She is one of the founding members of 1978. You might try asking Joy Yaggid.

Hi @karicafe - no BANG this year. Volunteer burn out with lackluster sales.

How about a pop up pet adoption site? I applied in South Orange in the past but never heard back so here I am again. With no local shelter it might be a hit with our neighbors who just might be thinking of adopting. I know of a few non profits including mine, who would be happy to set up a pretty display of kitties. Dogs would be a fun option as well and I could find a couple of 501s to participate. Happy to run with it if it is an option.
