DETROIT (WXYZ) — Returning to Eastern Market for its first show of the seventh season, Shed 5 Flea welcomes over 80 handmakers, shopkeepers, and vintage purveyors filling the interior and exterior of Shed 5 and around Shed 6. Shed 5 Flea brings Detroit a hefty dose of architectural salvage, vintage, and handcrafted goods, small-batch and artisan foods, apparel, and much more. This free event takes place on Sunday, June 11 from 10am to 4pm.

“Simply put, it’s all the things you love in one place and that place is Detroit’s historic Eastern Market. As if you needed another reason to love Eastern Market, your admiration just grew tenfold. Bring a big truck,” says Stephanie Jones, Mercantile Events & Marketing President.
