Here is a photo of me (Morgan) from 2012, when I sold vintage and hosted the markets.

I can’t believe I am going to be celebrating 12 years of Patchwork Market. I snagged an extra Armory date this year and it just so happens to fall on my birthday, October 11th. So we’re making it a party.

The FIRST surprise: we’re rolling back to 2014 booth prices. There will be a couple more surprises along the way.

$45 for a table.
$120 for a booth.

Patchwork started at Motorco and Fullsteam Brewery and eventually found its home at the Durham Armory. Twelve years of makers, shoppers, and Durham showing up for each other.
