The Makery Market
The vision for the Makery Market is that of a unique, mission-driven boutique dedicated to items made and curated in Central PA. This collective aims to benefit local creatives and enhance downtown State College while also providing a nurturing job-training environment for young women transitioning out of foster care.
The Makery Market intends to be a modern, colorful, joyful collective of local artists, makers, and creatives. The space and items for sale will reflect the whimsical, celebratory, high-key energy of The Makery.
The Makery Market is a new initiative developed by the team that brought you The Makery, Centre County’s favorite neighborhood art studio. The space is slated to open in early October.
Gather the girls
The "Gather the Girls" event was hosted by Amy Frank at The Makery PA to celebrate and announce their expansion project. This event gathered women from the State College Area to inform them about the vision of the new Makery Market coming this October. Our design team used whimsical and feminine touches throughout the event as a tribute to the women who made The Makery what it is today. We collaborated with Rooted Farmstead who's Flower Power Campers helped create the floral garlands and Gather and Co. who curated a charcuterie spread for the event. Our team worked with a local woodworker who was able to bring our vision to life for our floral installation by building us a custom base. This base will be repurposed as shelving for the market design.
​
Going with the theme of artists and women in our community, our tableware featured unique pottery which was donated by a local artist. These pieces were the perfect pop against the pink and blue accents.
Gathering in the garden
We had the honor of hosting and styling for the lovely artists of The Makery PA in the gardens of our studio. We enjoyed tea, a delicious meal created by Gather & Co. and great company to celebrate the past year at The Makery.
