 Public Market partners with former kid maker vendors

In 2021, we collaborated with Aidan Hall and Lila and Avery O’Hara to create shirts and totes with a cheerful new design evocative of the Market’s diverse cuisine and engaging atmosphere. Most recently, in February 2024, our staff worked with Livia V. for a custom wood cover for the stovetop in The Kitchen.
