Dear Friends, When asked for his favorite shopping and creative sources in the Windy City, star interior designer and Oprah guru Nate Berkus raved in Time Out Chicago, "I love the Chicago Antique Market on Randolph Street. The quality is incredible." Concierges recommend it with gusto to their sophisticated and well-traveled guests referring to it as 'the golden weekend'. So now......the Chicago Antique Market is the jewel of the Randolph Street Market Festival - the "Market of markets!", along with the four year old Indie Designer Market, and mini "markets within the Market" including the Vinyl Swap Meet, featuring collectible, rare and original vinyl recordings for audiophiles and nostalgic music lovers. Also, the Global Goods Bazaar, featuring a select group of artisans representing Chicago's ethnic heritage. And delicious addition is the Fancy Food Market, starring undiscovered culinary artisans making such goodies as truffles, gourmet popcorn, mini cupcakes, olive oils, spices and other treats. Of special interest to those interested in selling their own inherited treasures is the Do-It-Yourself Estate Sale, where tables can be purchased and family heirlooms can be unloaded for cash.
