Wow! Saturday was an amazing day for the modern handmade movement in Nashville. The Porter Flea team is so grateful for the massive interest in our city’s best designers and makers. This was easily our biggest and best market ever. We want to thank our Sponsors and Vendors for making this Porter Flea possible, and we especially want to thank the thousands of people (seriously) who waited in line to support it. You guys are awesome!
The huge crowd exceeded our highest expectations — and during its peak, we actually exceeded the venue capacity — so we will definitely be making some adjustments to the format to make sure Porter Flea remains Nashville’s favorite handmade marketplace in 2013 and beyond.
Happy Holidays!
Your friends,
Katie, Jessica, and Brent
