The Trashy {Mother} Earth Market

  • Gallagher Way (outside Wrigley Field) 3635 North Clark Street Chicago, IL, 60613 United States (map)

Join this junky jamboree to celebrate MOTHERS of all kinds: Mommas of humans, Mother of our Earth, and all the motha-junking artisans who transform materials into one-of-a-kind wonders.

There is no other market that offers a fully CIRCULAR experience! What does that mean? Not only can you shop for upcycled home goods, art, planters, fashion, body care, and oddball stuff, you can also drop off household supplies to the artisans for their future creative projects. Plus participate in waste-less activities and hands-on crafts.

Featuring Reduce Waste Chicago with their Reuse & Recycling Pop-Up. In addition to materials for makers, you can bring unwanted items (40+ different types!) for reuse, redistribution, repurposing, reclamation and recycling. Check their “accepted items” list now to know what to bring and start saving for the big day.

Join the frayed parade with our community-activated live art installation, LOOM360. Created and constructed by Katy Osborn, Nandi Duszynski, and Janara Banks. You'll weave rubbish ribbons into our 4-sided loom and co-create Trashy Tapestries, large and small.

Also enjoy food, beverages, live music provided by Gallagher Way.
