Mark your calendars! On Thursday, December 19th, from 4pm to 7pm, the vibrant atmosphere of Asbury Park will come alive at the Transparent Clinch Gallery with our second Maker's Market! This special event promises to be an inspiring gathering of creativity, craftsmanship, and community spirit.
For those unfamiliar, the Transparent Clinch Gallery is the brainchild of Danny Clinch, an acclaimed photographer of legendary musicians whose stunning work has graced the pages of Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, and GQ. We're thrilled to have his support as we celebrate local artisans and small businesses in our community.
The idea for the Maker's Market blossomed from my continued desire to foster connections among local creators and the larger community. I recognized a need for a curated marketplace that showcases some of the finer, thoughtfully crafted goods, by local artisans like myself.
I approached two incredible women: Tina, a model featured in our Hand Project Collection, and Maria, who also happens to be Danny's wife. Together, we envisioned an event that highlighted unique artisans and their products, and also supports the local community. Supporting small businesses is so crucial in maintaining the vibrancy of Asbury Park.
The Transparent Clinch Gallery has generously opened its doors for this event, creating a perfect backdrop for our gathering of talented makers.
We’re excited to showcase an exceptional lineup of small businesses that embody the spirit of creativity and craftsmanship:
The Maker's Market will be so much more than just shopping; it’s an opportunity to connect with local artisans and explore the talent that makes Asbury Park so special. Join us for an evening of creativity, conversation, and community spirit. We all can’t wait to see you there!
Stay tuned for more updates, and don’t forget to spread the word!
