Founded in 2010 by three Lower East Side locals, the Hester Street Fair has set the standard for what a market is, while transcending the notion and meaning of a typical “food court” or “flea” to become a one-of-a-kind curious, cultural and community gathering, drawing from the diversity of the neighborhood and New York City at large. Our mission is to empower pursuits of passion. We pride ourselves on being the most accessible market in New York City, not only in price or location, but the simple fact that all you need to do is show up. We have tents, tables, chairs, and a community, where everyone helps each other out. Need a sign? We can help. Wondering what to do about marketing and pricing? No problem. Want to lead an impromptu yoga meditation or get on the mic and sing a song? We can make that happen too.
